Your OS Command Line File Transfer Text Editor

Linux (Hardcore) Terminal scp vi / emacs

Additional notes

  1. Hostname is general.asu.edu . Username/passowrd is the same with your ASU username/password. ssh yourasuusername@general.asu.edu

  2. Choose SFTP as the connection protocol on WinSCP/Cyberduck.

  3. In the preferences of WinSCP/Cyberduck, you may select your favorite text editor as default to open *.* files. By doing so, you now can edit and synchronize your code files while working on them locally.

  4. Never forget to refer to gcc/make Tutorial / Makefile Tutorial if you struggle with compiling.

  5. Or email me if you have any more concerns.
