im trying to download a file to my local windows PC through ssh shell. Whats the command to do that, i cant seem to find anything...probably not searching right.

Using PuTTY?

Anyway, you would want to use the scp command. Try scp -h or man scp for instructions.

You can also look into WinSCP, which is a rocking GUI that uses scp and sftp.

if you're using SSH Secure Shell then you need to use the Secure File Transfer Client instead of the Secure Shell Client

filezilla also supports sftp

SSH has a handy little folder icon next to the open new terminal i believe. click on it for a drag-n-drop GUI
