[Eric] running and debugging programs remotely (on lan)

Hi,

As Eric already provides remote debugging, and setting a possible 
'custom' interpreter, I wondered about the following: I often develop 
some data processing script on my desktop, which will actually run on 
another computer on our lan (because or more processing power/memory). 
Would it be possible to configure eric such that it will launch (and 
debug if necessary) a certain script on a different computer (e.g. using 
ssh)? Or would this clash with autocompletion etc. (python packages 
installed are usually more or less the same on my desktop and the 
processing computer).
I was thinking something like a custom python 'interpreter' proxy script 
that would login into the remote host (passwordless using a key) and run 
the script there (with path translation) or call the debugging client 
script with the right parameters. Feasible?

Regards,
Vincent Schut.
