Above is the scp command used to transfer the html files generated after running fastqc to a local machine. The issue I spotted is that newer MacOS users, including myself, are receiving an error when running this line as shown below.

Other learners using MacOS have also experienced this issue so I want to present a potential solution. I've added a change in the command which solves the issue. Here's a screenshot of it:

It can be a direct change to the command or a suggestion in case the original command does not work. Here are both versions for convenience.

Previous:
scp dcuser@ec2-34-224-214-69.compute-1.amazonaws.com:~/dc_workshop/results/fastqc_untrimmed_reads/*.html ~/Desktop/fastqc_html

New:
scp dcuser@ec2-34-224-214-69.compute-1.amazonaws.com:~/dc_workshop/results/fastqc_untrimmed_reads/*.html ~/Desktop/fastqc_html
