How to create a file on the remote system?

I am a newbie to this.

I have openssh (the latest ver) installed on linux machine.

I have installed WinSCP on my XP laptop.

It connects without any problem.

But I don't see any options where I can create a file on the linux system using vi or any other editor.

Please help?

WinSCP does not have option to create new remote file yet. You need to create new file on your local disk and then upload it. Uploaded (existing) file can be edited then.
