spaces in file names
[1/6] from: fantam:mailandnews at: 19-Aug-2000 22:12
Hi,
I know you have to enclose file names with spaces within brackets.
%"/c/test/test test.txt"
But how do you manage file names with spaces in URLs.
For example,
ftp://usr:[pass--ftp--ftp--com]/test/test test.txt
Thanks a lot

escape the spaces out with a ' ' such as:
ftp://usr:[pass--ftp--ftp--com]/test/test test.txt

Howdy, Andrew and Fantam and all:

The to-url is redundant, actually:
join ftp://ftp.example.com/ %"spaces in file.txt"
== ftp://ftp.example.com/spaces in file.txt
You can also do:
site: ftp://ftp.example.com/
site/%"spaces in file.txt"
== ftp://ftp.example.com/spaces in file.txt
Above is handy if you're doing a number of files.
