Not really I guess. I don't know how to set EDITOR correctly to do the following: - M-x shell - ssh remote-server - su -l - vipw --> open a new buffer in *this* Emacs But, I could do this with with-editor and eshell (maybe it could work for M-x shell also, I don't know) as follow: - C-x C-f /ssh:remote-server|su:: - M-x eshell - vipw --> and here it works, opening an Emacs buffer through emacsclient so I could edit and C-c C-c when done I am not an expert of with-editor but it is one that it does well. -- Manuel Giraud
