Re: Thanks for wput

[Hagen Fritsch <hagen@itooktheredpill.dyndns.org>]

Hello,
your description is not possible. The "Warning: I noticed a second `@' in your 
URL." will only appear if there is a real unescaped second @ in the url. 
Therefore it would appear at the first line, but not when you escape the @. 
Instead when the @ is escaped as %40 it should work, but the problem (that 
actually really exists) would be that wput miscalculates the unescaping and 
would therefore login as ("user@name:" instead of "user@name").
Fixing this, i hope that it will work then.
I'll update the archives to wput-0.4d soon.
Thanks for the hint ;)
