Ah - I forgot to take the command line parsing into account. What happened to the "ftp:" before the "//" in this case? Let me see how this behaves on my other systems before deciding what to do. I don't want to build in workarounds for strange command line parsing into the code. A more general solution might be to allow the parameter to be quoted on the command line so that I can just handle standard URI syntax.
