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. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
