Synopsis: fetch -c /tmp -f somefile does not work

State-Changed-From-To: open-closed
State-Changed-By: fenner
State-Changed-When: Sat May 9 00:24:06 PDT 1998
State-Changed-Why: 
Fetch takes a URL.  This is how ftp: URL's work.  Use
ftp://some.host/%2Cdirectory/ if you want a real slash.
(Technically, ftp://some.host//directory/ means to perform
a sequence of commands which violates the FTP protocol,
which is why fetch silently drops the extra slash).
I addressed this issue in the man page but forgot to
commit it; mea culpa.
