I would say so - what a chatty server! :-)
This from RFC 959:
Thus the format for multi-line replies is that the first line
will begin with the exact required reply code, followed
immediately by a Hyphen, "-" (also known as Minus), followed by
text. The last line will begin with the same code, followed
immediately by Space <SP>, optionally some text, and the Telnet
end-of-line code.
So, my comment was a little misleading the "-" begins multiple lines
the " " is on the last line. What is in between is a mystery.
