Coding at the speed of thought.

PonyEdit is a remote SSH text editor like none you've ever seen before. Editing your files feels as fast and slick as editing local files, and your changes are saved nearly instantly to the remote server at the press of a button.

PonyEdit opens your files in a fully local text editor; allowing you to make changes as quickly as if you were editing a local file. However, it keeps an SSH connection open in the background and streams your changes to the remote site as you edit, so when it the time comes to save, your changes are already on the server and saving is nearly instant!

##Server Requirements

PonyEdit operates over a standard SSH shell connection, and only requires Perl on the remote server. There are no other special requirements, and it doesn't open any additional ports.

You can download the latest version of PonyEdit here.

PonyEdit is released under the GPL Version 3. This software is released as-is, use at your own risk, etc.

PonyEdit was originally created by @thingalon and @pento.
