If you need double slash, you must spell it explicitly:
wget [...] ftp
I agree with Tony.i think most basic users, me included, thought
www-*.yoyodyne.com would not match www.yoyodyne.com
Support globs as default, regexp as the more powerful option.

Not exactly. (details below)

I'm having a problem downloading files from a Novell Netware server.
When I do it manually with FTP, I first 'cd //ccp1' to change servers.
Ncftpget seems to do this, but wget doesn't:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp$ ncftpget -u xxx -p yyy ccp3 /tmp/
'//ccp1/data/shared/news/motd/qotd.txt'

I want to list all PDFs in the shell, ls -l *.pdf
I want a filter to keep all PDFs, --filter=+file:*.pdf
Note that "*.pdf" is not a valid regular expression even though it's what
most

I didn't miss the point at all. I'm trying to make a completely different
one, which is that regular expressions will confuse most user

The problem is that users who are expecting globs will try things like
--filter=-file:*.pdf rather than --filter:-file:.*\.pdf.

That would be "www--*" or "www-+".

That would look to be the most elegant method. I do hope that the (?i:) and
