Summary     : Transparent Remote (file) Access, Multiple Protocol
Description :
TRAMP stands for `Transparent Remote (file) Access, Multiple Protocol'. This
package provides remote file editing, similar to ange-ftp and EFS.

The difference is that ange-ftp uses FTP to transfer files between the local
and the remote host, whereas TRAMP uses a combination of rsh and rcp or other
work-alike programs, such as ssh/scp.
