```
    pip install install rmate
```
Install an editor locally to edit the files. Must support the rmate plugin. e.g. Install Visual Studio Code, install Rmate Plugin, follow instruction from the plugin (https://medium.com/@prtdomingo/editing-files-in-your-linux-virtual-machine-made-a-lot-easier-with-remote-vscode-6bb98d0639a4) and start local server.

Connect back to the Raspberry pi

    ssh -R 52698:127.0.0.1:52698 pi@<Raspberry Pi IP>

To edit e file remotely enter:
```
rmate "yourFile.py"
```
