Editing files from a remote ssh session with sublime via the use of rmate

gistfile1.txt

1. Install rmate in your remote server (https://github.com/aurora/rmate) 
    sudo wget -O /usr/local/bin/rmate https://raw.github.com/aurora/rmate/master/rmate
    sudo chmod a+x /usr/local/bin/rmate

2. Run "rmate <filename_to_edit>" command in your remote terminal, 
  and it will open the file locally in Sublime (make sure Sublime is already open on 
  your laptop before issuing the above command).
 
3. In order for this to work you must first do the following on your laptop:
 
  a). Install the rsub plugin for Sublime Text, which is available through Package Control tool: 
  go to Tools —> Command Palette —> Package Control: Install Package; then type ‘rsub’ and install.
 
  b). Add a remote forwarding line under the right host in your ~/.ssh/config file to enable connection. 
  The easiest is to forward the port for all hosts (so that you don't need to update it as your instance DNS name changes):
      Host *
          Hostname %h
          RemoteForward 52698 127.0.0.1:52698
