Tramp... zsh... this rings a bell. No, actually the bell rings
clear, it was rather that when we finally got it to work, we
had tried so many things conclusions were... inconclusive
at best.

I don't even remember if it was indeed zsh, or my remote SunOS
and OpenBSD, that caused the trouble. They are trouble spot
OSs, right?

Anyway I yank the file, maybe Mr. Albinus can have a second
look and detect what was going on :) Maybe it can help the OP
as well.

Anyway it works great, thanks again :) "Hooray!"
