Hi,
as far as I know, module support is for synchronized projects, and
synchronized projects do the editing locally, compiling remotely and
synchronization via git (to put it in a nutshell). You need to have git up and
running on either side and little else. You can compile locally, but you don't
have to.
Admittedly, I am using Kubuntu Oneiric (and not Windows) on my local TP (which
serves as the eclipse front end). Reading in this forum, Windows users have
reported problems coming from Windows using '\' instead of '/' for directories
and have a different concept of permissions (if any at all). I am not aware of
any necessity of FileZilla or VNC.
I always thought that synchronized projects will eventually supersede remote
projects, because synchronized projects are actually implementing remote
projects combined with local file editing.
Am I wrong with this ?
