For the point on transferring files if you are logged into the remote folder already:
- What do you mean by ssh being setup on the machine?
- Do we actually type @local:/... or once SSH is "setup" we have an actual address for the local machine (e.g. Mac Laptop)?
Thanks!

Update:
When I run it with username@local:/file_directory...
I get the following error:
ssh: local: node name or service name not known
Update: (Solution)
I setup local ssh on my mac:
‘System Preferences’ --> ‘Internet & Networking’ --> ‘Sharing’ --> ENABLE ‘Remote Login’
This then provided the username@ip address.
