use following patch at user.r or in your script directly. The trick is
to allow url parser to accept @ char. The problem is, that URL RFC does
not allow usage of such char or so, but well, it is being used pretty
frequently, so I hope we get someday RT to make the patch permanent ....
net-utils/url-parser/user-char: union net-utils/url-parser/user-char
make bitset! #"@"
or you can use scheme aproach, something like:
user_: ask ....
pass_: ask ....
read [scheme: 'ftp host: "www.example.cz" user: user_ pass: pass_]
maybe it can be done some easier way, dunno right now ...
