If you are working on an HPC cluster: [1] The ssh package for vscode is great https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/remote/ssh [2] Also check out rsub which allows you to open a file in your terminal locally https://github.com/henrikpersson/rsub

Editing remote files with Sublime Text and rsub[0] makes my day to day work so much easier. It seems like such a simple thing, but having a fast, intuitive, accessible, and easy to configure text editor is so underrated. I work with people that swear by vim, emacs, etc. but I never had the patience to learn how to set them up to suite my specific needs. With Sublime, I never had to. Maybe that makes me less sophisticated, but I genuinely appreciate that it's such a simple product that just works; I don't have to mess around with buffers, scrollback bindings, or memorize complicated shortcuts - I just call "subl" no matter where I am and I can manipulate the file natively on OS X.

I use nano all the time. If I need to do quick editing, nano is perfect. If I need to do anything more complex, I'd use rmate[1] + rsub[2] with sublime text. 1: https://github.com/aurora/rmate 2: https://github.com/henrikpersson/rsub

rsub (derived from rmate) makes editing with ST3 over ssh pretty easy. https://github.com/henrikpersson/rsub

this: https://github.com/henrikpersson/rsub changed my life, now when I'm in ssh I can just "rsub this.txt" and it pops up in my currently running sublime window !

There's the brilliantly awesome (and I cannot stress this enough) rmate/rsub extensions for Sublime Text. https://github.com/henrikpersson/rsub
