==Comments== I tried this but it keeps asking me for my password any time I save the file and at the end when I close it. ---- To avoid having to enter a password every time, you can use a pair of keys generated with ssh-keygen or puttygen. From what I understand, ssh-agent is also useful for this, but I've never tried it myself. ---- The more recent netrw {{script|id=1075}} has, under help for netrw-list-hack, an url to http://hacks.oreilly.com/pub/h/66 which helps one set up no-password ssh/scp etc. ---- I would like to add a section here using e ftp:/username@system_name//home/me/mydir1/my_file1 and include in it a discussion on help netrw-chgup and NetUserPass. I'm going to make it a == level topic. If that's OK, I'll proceed. <small>--Preceding [[Vim Tips Wiki:Quick reference|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Octopusgrabbus|Octopusgrabbus]] 16:45, February 9, 2010</small> :Go for it. In the worst case, we can always delete it or fix it up. Remember to log in before editing so we know who did it and can comment on your talk page if we see problems. --[[User:Fritzophrenic|Fritzophrenic]] 17:15, February 9, 2010 (UTC) :I'll also add "go for it". However, the tip really needs some general cleanup. I have not looked at the content recently, but the message above seems valid: the content from this tip should be merged into tip 337 ([[VimTip337]]). When merging, unless there is a good reason to the contrary, we copy content from the higher-number tip (more recent) to the lower-number tip. Then we rewrite the lower-number tip to omit duplicated or obsolete or unhelpful information. Then we add new information! However, perfection is not always easy, and any move towards improvement is welcome. See [[Vim Tips Wiki:Quick reference]] for how to sign a comment.
