= Overview =
When you point your konqueror to fish://''user''@''target'', [http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/KDE/kdebase/runtime/kioslave/fish/fish.cpp?view=log the fish kioslave] opens a process that calls the executable ssh. If a password is needed, this question is passed on to you (search for "password" in fish.cpp). Then a [http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/KDE/kdebase/runtime/kioslave/fish/fish.pl?view=log perl script] is copied over to the target host and executed there. On the target host, the file is named .fishsrv.pl. This perl script is compiled into your binary kio_fish.o. If you want to change it sustainably, you will have to change fish.pl in your source dir and then compile and install the directory [http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/KDE/kdebase/runtime/kioslave/fish/ kioslave/fish].
 
The perl script, running on the target computer, is (t)here to execute fish commands like LIST, STAT, WRITE and APPEND. They are sent from fish.cpp running on the source computer.
