sql - How to script out stored procedures to files?

Is there a way that I can find where stored procedures are saved so that I can just copy the files to my desktop?

Stored procedures aren't stored as files, they're stored as metadata and exposed to us peons (thanks Michael for the reminder about sysschobjs) in the catalog views sys.objects, sys.procedures, sys.sql_modules, etc. For an individual stored procedure, you can query the definition directly using these views (most importantly sys.sql_modules.definition) or using the OBJECT_DEFINITION() function as Nicholas pointed out (though his description of syscomments is not entirely accurate).

To extract all stored procedures to a single file, one option would be to open Object Explorer, expand your server > databases > your database > programmability and highlight the stored procedures node. Then hit F7 (View > Object Explorer Details). On the right-hand side, select all of the procedures you want, then right-click, script stored procedure as > create to > file. This will produce a single file with all of the procedures you've selected. If you want a single file for each procedure, you could use this method by only selecting one procedure at a time, but that could be tedious. You could also use this method to script all accounting-related procedures to one file, all finance-related procedures to another file, etc.

An easier way to generate exactly one file per stored procedure would be to use the Generate Scripts wizard - again, starting from Object Explorer - right-click your database and choose Tasks > Generate scripts. Choose Select specific database objects and check the top-level Stored Procedures box. Click Next. For output choose Save scripts to a specific location, Save to file, and Single file per object.

These steps may be slightly different depending on your version of SSMS.
