Copying multiple files using scp

Perhaps the shortest blog post ever, but it took me while to find the command.  I'll know I'll need it again so here it is:

scp -v -r user@host.name:/path/folder folder

This command created a folder named "folder" on the local machine and copies the content of "/path/folder" on host.name into it
