However, I would very much like to be able to use the igrep functions, in particular dired-do-igrep, in this context. Unfortunately, igrep doesn't seem to know how to use tramp. Looking at igrep.el (2.112), there appears to be at least some support of ange-ftp built in. Does there exist a version of igrep.el that knows about tramp as well as/instead of ange? Or, does anyone know of any other way to make it work? My Google searches so far turn up zilch. Thanks in advance! -Dan
