Here is a good example of what I want to do is transfer a ZIP file with a 
code base I want to build to my Beagle.

I have Filezilla server running on my Windows 10 PC, so I can pull the ZIP 
file across with CURL on my BBB, I'm thinking.

This is how you would do it (just shell script it or type it manually via 
shell):

curl ftp://192.168.0.4/bb.org-overlays-master.zip --user myname:mypassword 
-o bb.org-overlays-master.zip

My Windows box's ip address on my LAN is 192.168.0.4.

Filezilla Server defaults with its root directory your Downloads directory.

So I just put a copy of the dtc compiler ZIP file in my windows Downloads 
directory, and from putty just type in the previous command.

Clever huh? ^ ^
