Way of opening local gVim edit remote file via putty?


Hi all,

I used to coding in remote unix server by connecting via putty in my windows desktop, but the problem is that the account of unix server is shared for varies users who are using vim, too. This causes the remote vimrc chaos.

So I think it would be a great idea using local gvim with my own vimrc to edit remote files. I know the way of `:e scp://...' to edit the specified remote file via scp, but it need to switch from putty to gvim when I want to open remote files after some operation in the terminal, say grep, tail, or make. And switch it back if I want to take another operation. It is quite inefficient.

Is it possible a way in putty terminal opening my local gvim in windows desktop to edit the remote file without manually switching window and retyping `:e scp://...' again and again?

Thanks in advance!
