ST3 will open a config file for setting up your connection.In the left sidebar, right click on the folder name or icon. This folder will hold all the files you need to work with. Open ST3 and select File -> "Open Folder".If you're going to be working with all files in a remote folder This is how I use ST3 and the SFTP plugin (I assume you've already installed both). The SFTP plugin will also nag you to buy it. You can safely ignore this forever and it doesn't cost you any functionality to use it for free, but just be aware of this (and if you can support the developers.). ST is paid software available on a trial basis, and will keep asking you to buy it every few times you save. Other editors might let you do something like this please feel free to check them out. (Ok, I'm basically endorsing this one text editor, but ever since a friend of mine showed it to me, I've found it to be my preferred editor in most circumstances. Use Sublime Text 3 ( ) along with the Sublime SFTP plugin (sorry, you'll have to search for this) I've found it fairly acceptable, and it's a GUI so you can just drag and drop files/folders between your local Windows machine, and the remote Ubuntu Linux machine. WinSCP is just a GUI which works similarly to PuTTY, but you can browse files on the remote server. Also, warning: I am not a Windows user, I just provide support for them when they need to work with Unix :). I'll describe two methods, and you decide what you like best. I've had to deal with this a lot, and I used to teach a few classes where students needed to work from Windows machines. At some point, the compiler will refuse to compile something, or your Windows editor won't recognize a single newline character as end-of-line. Second, you're going to have problems with end-of-line bytes moving the file back-and-forth between Windows and Linux. First, there's an amazing range of editors of various types available, from NotePad imitators to full-blown IDEs. Honestly, you'd be better off doing text editing on the Ubuntu machine. For that matter, you may need to start sshd on your Ubuntu box. You have to "pull" the file from your Linux machine, because Microsoft artificially makes computers into "servers" and "clients" (presumably to create false high price points for corporate buyers) and doesn't see fit to put a SSH server on anything.
