Help with SSH

Hey guys,
I’ve connected to my school’s fileserver via SSH, but need to pull some files down to my local machine so i can work on them.

I tried a simple CP command because SCP isnt installed.


cp 'School_Work Post March Break.zip' mdipi@my.ip

But that didnt work, am I not using the command right? I’ve never CP’ed from a server before, just on my local machine.

Any help would be awesome. I tried a few Google searches and they all came up with SCP stuff, so if there’s another way to do it, I’m up for suggestions!
