Editing remote files with eclipse

Exploring and editing remote filesystems from eclipse is nice and easy to use.
  • Add a new software update site: http://download.eclipse.org/dsdp/tm/updates/
  • Install RSE_Runtime from this repository
  • Add a new view to your workspace: Remote Systems
  • Add new servers to the view using the different options available: dstore, ssh, sftp, ftp, etc. I prefer to use ssh because it is available in all linuxes I manage.
