How do people deal with remote files? I love Sublime, but always end up reverting back to VIM as it is so slow when accessing files over a network connection.

I've tried the SFTP plug-in, but find it really clumsy. Ideally I'd just love to be able to add a remote folder over SFTP the same way you do local ones.

try something like WebDrive, NetDrive, ExpanDrive or Dokan SSH http://dokan-dev.net/en/

they create a mapped drive to a location of your choosing and you edit files as if they were local.

i stopped worrying about the remote editing functionality in editors since. before that i used winscp, which detects changes and re-uploads automatically, but it's not as convenient.

Macfusion is sometimes finicky, but works for me most of the time. And it's free (unlike Expandrive).

Copy the files to your computer, make the changes, and copy them back?
