* I've downloaded "plink.exe", "pscp.exe" and "putty.exe".
* I've moved them to a directory included in my PATH environment variable.
But when I try to eval (cd "/plink:usr <at> host:~/") or (cd
"/pscp:usr <at> host:~/"), Emacs hangs after I supply the password.
Maybe the server doesn't support those protocols. Dunno. In any
case, I'm able to open files in that server, if I let Emacs choose the
method, i.e., doing exactly what the OP says.
