That link looks interesting. Thank you. I'll read it tomorrow when my brain isn't so tired.

Thank you, @Snoopy8. I've possibly arrived there from another angle.
Thinking I have to transfer a file, I'd decided to have a poke around the three FTP clients I have on the Mac for my business. First stop, Filezilla (which is multi-platform, but that's probably not relevant). Looking at available protocols, I find SFTP - SSH File Transfer Protocol. Wow! I'd always understood SFTP as Secure FTP.
Anyhow, it seems a good chance that Filezilla will enable me to do what WinScp does for you. Fingers crossed. I'll report back.
A quick update: Filezilla did the job. I have an apparently working SnakeoilOS installation running.
However, I had a few error messages along the way that appear to be caused by me missing that I should be using Ubuntu on the RPi, not Raspberry Pi OS. I thought I saw someone here recommending RPiOS rather than the RPi Ubuntu. Anyhow, it looks like my bad.
Next step, read up about which version of Ubuntu I should be installing, and try again!
Thanks for your help, @Snoopy8 .
