[Xastir] Slightly OT

I thought the same thing, but my guess is that he is using ftp to fetch
the file, then edit it, then ftp it back. Sounds OK for website type
work, but not for system files. Too insecure. Perhaps the same setup
with SCP.

I don't understand why there would be a relationship between an editor
and FTP????

I have several GUI editors on my system (xedit, dedit, gedit, gxedit,
kedit) but somehow always go back to using joe in a terminal.
