ssh through emacs shell?

Question

I wonder if anyone out there uses ssh through the emacs shell. I am able to connect with the remote machine but I cannot open files to view/edit with emacs using \'emacs filenam

Answer 1

Emacs has term-mode which is full blown terminal emulator you can run emacs in emacs. Anything you run on terminal will run in term-mode

Also emacs has tramp mode which can open files through ssh.

/scp:user@ipOrHost#port:/

it will transfer files back and forth. you just edit them as you would edit local files.

No need for x11 forwarding or other shenanigans.
