Re: tramp (2.0.25); saving remote buffer fails

i had no tramp configuration whatsoever and use the 21.3.50.1 cvs
emacs tramp.  but the default method was indeed set to "ssh"
nonetheless.

so i change it to "ftp" as per the docstring, but the problem
persists.  this has nothing to do with the access method, because i
can get the file, but i can't _save_ it.  the problem remains the
same, but i haven't yet gotten a verbose backtrace.  the current one,
after changing the default method, is:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument number-or-marker-p nil)
  logand(nil 3072)

Su method no longer works ?

If I do ctrl-x-f /su:root <at> localhost I get:
ssh: su: Name or service not known

Process *tramp/nil su* exited abnormally with code 255

I cannot even write the entire string.. I get that message after "/su:"
It seems that it ignores the su method.. any idea ?
I'm using tramp 2.0.26

Cheers,

Your file name is incomplete, so Tramp is assuming you're using
(default) method "ssh", host "su", file "root <at> localhost". You might
try "/su:root <at> localhost:.", or something like this.

If I write /su: I get the error.. I CANNOT write anything after ":" ..

Strange. You mean, no further input possible in minibuffer? Even not a
<TAB> or <RET>?

And how did you enter your first example "/su:root <at> localhost"? Could
you, please, provide the keystrokes you've entered (by "C-h l")?

this is definitely cool and it works like a charm. It took some
fiddling with the filename syntax (no documentation yet...) but I got
it to run with this:

C-x f /smb:<DOMAIN>\<LOGIN> <at> <HOST>:/<SHARE> RET

where <DOMAIN>, <LOGIN>, <HOST> and <SHARE> are substituted with
sensible values... (this is on GNU emacs 21.1.1).

I was just wondering if it would be possible to somehow preset
<DOMAIN> and <LOGIN> to default values to save some typing (apart from
using the environment)...

On a related note: is it possible to open a file with a literal $ sign
in the name? In an effort of good will emacs tries to substitute an

Oops. I wrote something under "External transfer methods" in the Info
pages. Maybe you didn't generate the actual ones?

That's indeed like a charm, because I haven't prepared it for _that_
syntax :-)

Hmm. Different to all other Tramp methods, the default setting is
anonymous access to SMB, which (unfortunately often) makes sense.

tramp (2.0.25); Unable to save files by ftp


When the function save-buffer is called, I've got an error and 
``byte-code: Wrong type argument: number-or-marker-p, nil''
So I can't save my file :-(

I've got this trouble in ftp mode only.
I also tried ``ssh2: connexion´´ and there is no problem at all.

Thank you.
