Re: rsync buffer

I'm often editing a file on a machine and i want to continue editing
it on another machine (i'd prefer the buffers - undo history, jump
places, etc move with the file, but...).

what i want is for that file to show up on client like if i were to
type ':new /file'. so something like:
:new scp://user@host//~/blah
in my client. but, if the existing vim could somehow export the path
and file so that i don't have to type it all (and generally mess it
up, that would be cool. what i generally do (because i generally typo
something when i try this is:
:w
:|scp <file> user@host:~/blah
and open it.

... and it would just be too cool if i could get something like this
to work on macvim too
