Just a wild hope on my part I know but has anyone managed to customise emacs so it can be used to edit files on host machines that are not running Unix. What I'm looking for is something that can do the equivalent of hhcp'ing the file from say our Prime machine let me edit it and then hhcp it back again with me just having to do C-x C-f , C-x C-w and the like......a dream!?? Thanks Rob...

I have no idea what hhcp might be, nor what version of Emacs you're using... If you use GNU Emacs and the machines in question share an IP network, you might look into ftp-find-file. It will do what you sound like you want to do. Other Emacsen may have similar features.
