SolarOS 4.13.4 manual · app

scp

SCP file transfer over SSH. It supports password or key authentication through the shared SSH transport and host lookup/known-host storage. When user@ is omitted, SCP uses the NVS-backed SolarOS identity user. Tab completion reads aliases from /.ssh/hosts, preserves an explicit user@ prefix, and appends : after a unique host match.

Usage:

scp [-P port] local [user@]host:remote
scp [-P port] local [user@]host:
scp [-P port] [user@]host:remote local
scp [-P port] [user@]host:remote-glob dir
scp [-P port] [user@]host:remote

Remote download paths can use * or ?. The local target must be an existing directory for remote wildcard downloads.

SCP runs inline in the shell. Its progress and result remain in the terminal scrollback, and usage errors or a completed transfer return directly to the prompt.

Controls:

• App-exit key cancels an active transfer.
