Getting started

I found Wing when searching for a Windows (10 Home) IDE to remote debug some python on my PI 3B, it looks like just what I want but as a newbie I have failed at the first hurdle, getting the Pi debugger package installed!

I am trying to follow these instructions. link text I downloaded the debugger package (wing-debugger-linux-arm32-7.2.2.0.tar.bz2) to Windows then placed it on my Pi in a suitable directory, made it executable, but it errors when I use it.

tar (child): wing-debugger-linux-arm32-7.2.2.0.tar.bz2: Cannot open: No such file or directory tar (child): Error is not recoverable: exiting now tar: Child returned status 2 tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now

Up to now I have used PuTTY and WinSCP to tinker with my PI so I know its IP and can ssh to it no problem, however they are always password protected connections. Can someone guide me please?
