YOU SUMMONED ME?
:-)
The two easiest ways I can think of:
M-x shell
then when it comes up, type 'scp -r my.files.* user@host:dir/dir/dir'
OR
M-x shell-command<return>scp -r my.files.* user@host:dir/dir/dir<return>
It's really the matter of using the right tool for the right job. :-)
Also, dired mode may be able to do it; or may be able to do it in
conjunction with ange-ftp. I'm still hoping for an ange-scp for fsf
emacs, but it hasn't materialized. There's an Xemacs solution that
I've quoted before someplace...
Ahh; from my diary:
ssh emacs remote edit: TRAMP by Kai (ref'd by varjag on #sawfish)
good hits in RPM land and prolly rpmfinds
a quick google lands

MOOO! It supports FSF now, or I was braindead when I made that
entry. (Nov 27, 2000). Last update March 1, 2001. Sa-weet... excuse
me, I have some code slurping to do.
