Can't emacs already do that? (Score:2)

by schwern (1528)

Sounds like you just reinvented efs [xemacs.org] angie-ftp [emacswiki.org] or tramp. [gnu.org]
Or you can just go all the way. [sourceforge.net]

  I've used tramp in the past. It's good, but loading stuff across ssh is just too slow because it sets up a new connection each time (and yes, I've tried fsh...still too slow.) Samba is *way* quicker. FTP suffers from the same problem. I've got a mac, so I can't try linux kernel madness, but I doubt it's fast enough. For crazy lack of speed since the finder can mount an FTP server in the past I've tried to use Filesys::Virtual::SSH [cpan.org] with POE::Component::Server::FTP [cpan.org] to make a FTP/SSH bridge so that I could mount SSH. It works, but it was insanely slow.
