Well, what I do is editing -python- scripts on my host, and executing
them on my neo.

Yes you gave me this tip before and I can't live without it now :) that
is why I was disappointed when I saw no NFS support on ASU.

Thanks Mickey, I'll try to update the kernel with the the one from FSO,
should do the trick.

That is understood, but for development I don't like to run scp all the
time. sshfs is a solution. That is what I used to do before, but still I
prefer NFS than sshfs.

eheh, the problem is not really the time it takes to copy the file, but
the time it takes ME to run the scp command !
Yes, I am that lazy :)
