The fish protocol expects a fish server on the remote side. Konqueror transfers such a server (.fishsrv.pl) initially, when it doesn't exist there. I'm currently implementing the fish protocol for Tramp 2.1, driven by performance considerations. But (at least for the time being) it isn't foreseen to provide such a server by Tramp; it should be available on the remote side already. The fish protocol defines a fallback in case there is no server on the remote side: use shell commands. One could say that Tramp has implemented this fallback already :-) Anyway, this won't be available for Emacs 22.1, because Tramp 2.0 is integrated there. > Bye, Reiner. Best regards, Michael.
