tramp (2.0.1); Can't save remote files.

[Steve Youngs]

The subject pretty well says it all.  I tried to copy a file to a
remote machine, and I got...

"Not a tramp file name: /home/steve/upload/build-1.06-pkg.tar.gz"

That was the local file.  The remote file was going to be:

/[sm/address@hidden/build-1.06-pkg.tar.gz

I also get the same error if I edit a remote file and then try to save
it, but in that case Tramp complains about the "autosave" file not
being a Tramp filename.

I haven't looked too deeply into this yet, hopefully I'll get a chance
late tonight or tomorrow night.

Kai, you don't think that this is in some way related to the "\\'" I
was messing with yesterday do you?

Stuff that could be pertinent: (You did say "Include as much info as
=============================   possible." :-P)
