Hack-
Thank you!
It works with the '\' (but not without- gives a 'file not found' error (from
the remote site) where it included the "type=a" as part of the filename).
Thanks (wonderful tool, by the way!)

And it is! wget will parse it correctly. Obs the debug output doesn't
include the ftp type. I'll submit a patch for this.
The other possibility is to escape the ; with a backslash like \;type=A
$ wget -d "ftp://127.0.0.1/test.bin;type=A"
DEBUG output created by Wget 1.6.1-dev on cygwin32.
parseurl ("ftp://127.0.0.1/test.bin;type=A") -> host 127.0.0.1 ->
ftp_type A
-> opath test.bin -> dir -> file test.bin -> ndir
newpath: /test.bin

PS: If you're not using the latest and greatest version 1.6 grab it from
a
GNU mirror near you or look at the web-site (http://sunsite.dk/wget) for
instruccions
