#73 Add SFTP (SSH) ability to FTP_synchronize

[Peter Bittner]

As FTP connections are not secure and many servers therefore do not provide FTP anymore I'd love to see SFTP (on port 22) being be implemented in FTP_synchronize. This should be just an option in the configuration dialog (similar to the options that the PuTTY terminal program gives you. [see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PuTTY\]).

++ This would be awesome to have in np++

agreed, noone uses FTP anymore and having a SSH/SFTP plugin would be very useful. Its possible to implement using NppExec and a command line sftp client but cumbersome

Currently I use notepad++ in pair with WinSCP.
Just declare Notepad++ as external editor in WinSCP settings, then browse files on remote host, and just choose to edit remote files. WinSCP preform the rest - download file, open it in winscp, and upload it to server on every save.

Im closing this as NppFTP can do this, FTP_s is pretty much dead.
