It would, sure, but you can’t in general tell from the local side whether the remote side has /run, nor what your UID is there.  You’d need an extra round trip, for which you need ssh’s ControlPersist option to make performant.  This is too complicated for a simple example.

No, the socket will have permissions 0700, so other users won’t be able to read it.  The risk is that other users will be able to cause a nuisance by creating a file of the same name in its place.  Perhaps it’s better to suggest putting the socket in the user’s home directory (which I originally discounted in case of shared NFS home directories)?

I see from lib-src/emacsclient.c that they¢re used only if SOCKETS_IN_FILE_SYSTEM is defined, which is only the case if WINDOWSNT is not defined.  I¢ll update the wording not to imply that they don¢t exist, only that we don¢t use them.

Thanks. LGTM, just two nits:

I'm not sure whether MS-Windows supports UNIX domain sockets or not. Eli
might know this.

Here we need also

remote$ export EMACS_SERVER_FILE=3Dserver

Otherwise, the "Implicit local socket" rule comes to play, see
set_socket in emacsclient.c.

Otherwise, it is fine. Eli, can we still install it in the emacs-29 branch?

And another question. You have already contributed to Emacs. That
contribution, and your proposed changes here and in bug#66598 bring you
close to the limit of changes (~15 lines), which are accepted without
formal paperwork. In order to make further contributions from you
possible: would you like to assign the copyright of your future

If the host has run /run/user it would make sense to setup the Emacs
socket inside this directory.
If the socket fie is in /tmp every other user can read it, using /run/user =
is
more secure.
On older systems this might be /var/run/user I think.

You¢re right about these kinds of systems, of course, but the old example already left a lot as an exercise for the reader: it assumes that you¢d suitably configured server-port and server-use-tcp, then somehow made ~/.emacs.d/server/server accessible to the client.  Deciding on a suitable ssh -R argument for TCP forwarding doesn¢t seem like the hardest part.

So, I¢m not certain that one and a half examples is better than one complete example, but, anyway, here¢s an updated patch.

Thanks for this. However, I don't believe we shall document this instead
of server ports. Better would be to document both variants. The reason
is, that sockets don't exists on every platform, see the "#ifdef
SOCKETS_IN_FILE_SYSTEM" directive in emacsclient.c.

Furthermore, people might run older sshd servers on remote systems,
which don't support socket forwarding. It must be also at least OpenSSH
6.7, like the client on the local side. Think about routers, NAS
systems, and alike, which aren't upgraded over years. As Tramp
maintainer I know what I'm speaking about.

The %TOKEN percent expansion (your %r and %i tokens) exists since
OpenSSH 8.2 only.

Best regards, Michael.

Previously, the emacsclient --tramp-prefix documentation suggested
using it in conjunction with a forwarded TCP port.  However, OpenSSH
has supported forwarding sockets since version 6.7 (released 2014), so
let’s suggest that instead.  Sockets require less manual configuration
than ports, are less likely to clash, and are more secure, so will be
a better choice for the majority of people looking to set up this
facility for the first time.
