+In order to reduce connection setup, information about used
+connections are kept persistent in a file.  The name of this file is

+When the variable `file-precious-flag' is set, the success of a remote
+file copy is checked via the file's checksum.

+If `default-directory' is a remote file name, subprocesses are started
+on the corresponding remote system.
