With BBEdit, you can...

Command Files, Folders, Disks, and Servers

• use Disk Browsers and FTP Browsers to view and open files on local and remote volumes Improved!
• create File Groups to work with related files in a project, no matter their location
• create and edit files directly on FTP and SFTP servers with built-in “Open from FTP Server” and “Save to FTP Server” commands; or use Interarchy, Fetch, Transmit, or any file transfer client with “Edit in BBEdit” support

BBEdit offers the ability to work with files on FTP and SFTP servers as easily as if they were part of your local file system. (top)

You can also add files from anywhere to a File Group (and save the File Group so you can reuse it) while the other Browsers reflect the actual structure of the volume or directory. This means you can access files you want to associate together without them having to be located together.

“bbedit” command-line tool (top)

The “bbedit” command-line tool now supports opening FTP and SFTP URLs from the command line, and now behaves consistently with other Unix tools by allowing you to create files on the fly as necessary.
