The following reply was made to PR bin/6558; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Bill Fenner <fenner@parc.xerox.com> To: Bill Fenner <fenner@freebsd.org> Cc: mi@aldan.algebra.com, freebsd-gnats-submit@freebsd.org Subject: Re: bin/6558 Date: Sat, 9 May 1998 00:44:24 PDT In message <199805090731.AAA15743@freefall.freebsd.org> you write: >ftp://some.host/%2Cdirectory/ if you want a real slash. Of course, I meant %2F. And I skipped over the part where the original complaint was about the "-c" flag. Checking the code, this problem was thought of but not addressed: /* * XXX - we should %-map a leading `/' into `%2f', but for * anonymous FTP it is unlikely to matter. Still, it would * be better to follow the spec. */ So, for now, use the ftp://some.host/%2Fdirectory/ URL form, and someone should fix fetch to do what the comment says to do.
