   I want to be able to edit files which are not accessible from
my local file system or via NFS; in other words, I would like to be
able to edit files with names like "hostname:path", much as I can
copy files with names like this using rcp.  It looks like it wouldn't
be too difficult to do, but if someone has already done it and would
like to (re-)post it, I would greatly appreciate it.
