I'm not sure what your problem is.  Does the SSH program provide a file 
transfer utility? could you write your code on your local computer then 
just transfer the final code to the server?  A lot of Python programmers 
use Vi for writing their code.  do you have access to that through SSH?
I'm not quite sure what you mean by "SSH editor."
