Edit your files

You can now modify your files directly using a text editor. Be careful, never use word processor (like Microsoft Word or LibreOffice Writer) to modify your code and never copy/past code to/from those softwares. Use only text editors and UTF-8 encoding.

Disconnect

The server will be disconnected when you switch off your computer or log out. You will just have to type your password to reconnect. You can also remove completly the mounting point by right clicking on it in “This PC” (“Ce PC” in French). This is recommended if you use a computer shared between several users.

Security warning
Never leave your computer unsupervised with your session open and iPOP-UP server connected.
