1 Hi,
2
3 how do you use lftp (to mirror a remote site)
4 when the password you have contains a bracket?
5
6 I'm trying 'lftp -u user,pass(word ftp.example.com', and
7 there appears to be no way to escape characters in the
8 password. Using single quotes also doesn't work, same
9 as 'lftp 'ftp://user:pass(word@×××××××.com'.

11 It works with an entry in ~/.netrc, though I don't
12 exactly want to have to use that.
