@cindex file selection dialog
! When Emacs is built with a suitable GUI toolkit, it pops up the

If the file you specify is actually a directory, @kbd{C-x C-f} invokes
Dired, the Emacs directory browser, so that you can ``edit'' the contents

@noindent
! When you do this, Emacs may use the FTP program to access files on the
! remote host, or Emacs may use a remote-login program (such as
! @command{ssh}, @command{rlogin}, or @command{telnet}) to do this.
!
! You can always specify in the file name which method should be used to
! access the remote files, for example
@file{/ftp:@var{user}@@@var{host}:@var{filename}} uses FTP, whereas
@file{/ssh:@var{user}@@@var{host}:@var{filename}} uses @command{ssh}.
! When you don't specify a method in the file name, Emacs determines a
! default method according to the following rules:
@enumerate
@item
! If the host name starts with @samp{ftp.} (with dot), then Emacs assumes
! the @command{ftp} method.
@item
! If the user name is @samp{ftp} or @samp{anonymous}, then Emacs assumes
! the @command{ftp} method.
@item
! Otherwise, Emacs assumes the @command{ssh} method.

! To carry out this request, Emacs uses either the FTP program or a
! remote-login program such as @command{ssh}, @command{rlogin}, or
! @command{telnet}. You can always specify in the file name which
! method to use---for example,
@file{/ftp:@var{user}@@@var{host}:@var{filename}} uses FTP, whereas
@file{/ssh:@var{user}@@@var{host}:@var{filename}} uses @command{ssh}.
! When you don't specify a method in the file name, Emacs chooses
! the method as follows:
@enumerate
@item
! If the host name starts with @samp{ftp.} (with dot), then Emacs uses
! FTP.
@item
! If the user name is @samp{ftp} or @samp{anonymous}, then Emacs uses
