Re: integrating emeditor and emftp
Windows has a function which could mapping network driver. I usu map a network driver as a hard driver instead of a folder. It works fine.
I don't know why EmEditor needs em ftp for this function which window has one already?

Re: integrating emeditor and emftp
I was surprised that EmEditor is missing a FTP integration option. I've been editing files from a Total Commander FTP session - but that is extremely tedious, what with all the dialogs required for each edit/save.

As I noted at the end of the Total Commander thread:
Quote:
FTP Drive 3.5 (214KB) , install and run.
Quote:
Add your FTP servers in the "Sites List Editor".
FTP Drive will create a mounted drive (defaults to Z) under My Computer.

Quote:
1.Content is browseable like a regular folder structure.
2.Can use normal edit commands, context-menu's TC Buttons, etc.
3.Can drag files into folders, or Copy and them Paste from the context menu.
4.Copy/Paste from a local Harddrive into the Z:\MyWebSite.
5.Use TC's Comment descript.ion's for files.
6.When you are editing a file, and save it. It is saved. Done.

Quirk: To create a NEW file on the server with the Windows Save(as) Dialog -- You will need to save the file twice. The first save creates an empty file and you get an error dialog. Further saves work as normal.
Red (above) -> TC FTP cannot do.

CONS (1): "FTP Drive 3.5" saves FTP site passwords unencrypted (plain-text) within FTP Drive's folder. That aspect is not secure. The master-password option of TC and other Password managers (or even Opera) would be much preferred.


Non TC-Related NOTES:

"FTP Drive" works fine from Explorer, other file browsers, and/or the Windows open/save dialogs.

Start a FTP session by simply opening a subFolder within Drive Z:\

Files are accessed as normal aside from minor read/write delays (as expected) since they need to be uploaded/download from/to the server.

Re: integrating emeditor and emftp
I liked that feature of my former editor very much and I was expecting that EmEditor would include an "Open via EmFTP"-dialog to the file-menu once you have purchased both so that you don't have to open two separate applications (and that it allows you to select/open/save/close more than one file at once via ftp).

Would be great if this could be implemented.

integrating emeditor and emftp
Is there any plan to add ftp feature to emeditor to make remote editing possible?
