Percentage in password

[Marcus]

Hi
Is there some way I can WGET to work with a percentage sign in the password?

I.e. WGET ftp://login:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/file.txt
 
Best regards
Marcus

Yes, escape the percentage as %25:

wget ftp://login:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/file.txt

(This is not specific to Wget; '%' is the hex escape character in
URLs.)
