Set Filezilla so that it view/edit by default instead of downloading

I'm working on Ubuntu and using FileZilla. I was wondering that when I doubleclick on a remote file, if it was possible to open it in an editor instead of downloading it. (Automatically View/Edit instead of Download option).

Ideas?

Open FileZilla, enter Edit → Settings (Alt + E, S) and to go Interface → File lists.

There, in Double-click action you can set the default action for double-clicking files and directories:

Note that to edit the file, it has to be downloaded... – vonbrand – 2013-03-01T02:34:01.060
