puTTY

Hi, I want to use a program called puTTY to configure my web space with swift. I was wondering if I am able to and what I need to type in to log into edit the page.

Thanks

You cannot putty into our webserver to configure your webpage.

Use this guide for how to setup your home webservice.

I use EditPlus which allows you to open files over an ftp link and edit and save them as if they were on the hard drive.

Sorry, I don't work well with the HTML code. I am learning to use it by making my web page in plain text and then viewing the html coding for it. Thanks Anyway

Does Swift support any of the following:

# PuTTY
# PSCP
# PSFTP
# PuTTYtel
# Plink
# Pageant
# PuTTYgen


Thanks

Don't think so. Your only option is an FTP (not SFTP) client. Any ftp client will do the job.

Thanks, do you know a good program for writing scripts to put on the web space

Thanks

Depends on what you mean by scripts. As I mentioned earlier, Editplus is a good general purpose code editor that can take the pain out of ftp'ing between your pc and the swiftel server. There are other editors that specialise more for certain languages.

I personally use Crimson editor to edit our website in a windows environment, there are a few editors i may use in the linux/shell environment, Vi, Pico etc.
