How do I search SFTP?

[David Rostenne]

Hey folks,

How do I search an SFTP folder full of files from within BBEdit?

I did RTFM and Google and have not found the solution. Hoping you guys can help!

Cheers,

Dave

The best (and shortest :-) answer is to mount the remote server
via an utility such as ExpanDrive:

<http://www.expandrive.com/>

or Mountain Duck (from the makers of the CyberDuck file transfer app):

<https://mountainduck.io/>

so that all the files you wish to search are available via the filesystem.

Thank you Patrick!

As soon as you suggested this I laughed as I am sure i’ve asked you before and got the same answer. Which I promptly forgot.

Much appreciated!

Cheers,

Dave
