 4 Configuring TRAMP
 *******************
 
 TRAMP is initially configured to use the ‘scp’ program to connect to the
 remote host.  Just type ‘C-x C-f’ and then enter file name
 ‘/user@host:/path/to.file’.  For details, see Default Method.
 
    For problems related to the behavior of remote shell, see 
 Remote shell setup for details.
 
    For changing the connection type and file access method from the
 defaults to one of several other options, see (Connection
 types).
 
    *Note* that some user options and variables described in these-NEWLINE- examples are not auto loaded by Emacs.  All examples require TRAMP is
 installed and loaded:
