elements, which are used for the initial authentication attempt (if
requested by the server). in the case of $http_proxy, use the values
for proxy authentication.
.netrc entry exists for the host with a valid user. noted by

* fix a minor memory leak associated with calling ruserpass() with
an empty user, password, or account.
- the path is split on `/', and each directory is CWD-ed into separately.
(from [standards/7484] by Alan Barrett <apb@iafrica.com>)
- support a trailing `;type=X' suffix, where X is a,i, or d. (d isn't
implemented, but it is recognised)
- the only non-compliant behaviour is that empty directories sections
(e.g `//') aren't run as `CWD ' - as a lot of ftpds don't like that.
Instead, treat this as a no-op.
* don't support globbing for ftp urls, since that's technically not
RFC compliant.
* fix a couple of man-page nits
* $FTPMODE is the documented way in ftp(1) to force passive, active,
gate-ftp, or autodetect.
* AFAIK, we haven't shipped any previous release with pftp in /usr/bin
* no link was made for gate-ftp (and i don't think that makes sense in
/usr/bin either)
* even though the link isn't made, the support for pftp, gate-ftp, and
the `-p' flag should remain since people may depend on having their
own link (e.g, ~/bin/pftp -> /usr/bin/ftp) or aliases which use
these things. it doesn't hurt to leave argv[0] checking in ftp's main().
* fix fetch_ftp() so that hcode parsing is not done for file:// urls
(a } in the wrong place, and code at the wrong indent level...)
* change outfile to being a global (so it gets correctly reset)
* change parse_url to not remove leading '/' for non ftp urls.
whilst this is not totally rfc1738 compliant, other code kinda
assumes this is the case, and it doesn't hurt
* parse_url()
- only look for user[:pass] for an ftp url (per rfc1738)
- strip leading /'s in an ftp url. (almost per rfc 1738)
* fetch_url()
- decode a copy of the path and use that to build local filenames
- send port in http Host: header (suggested by cgd@netbsd.org)
* fetch_ftp()
- url_decode() the user, pass and path
- fix splitting of path into dir & file (partially from [bin/7073])
- don't bother caching the last host; it can cause problems when
using ftp:// transfers, or when the user changes between xfers
* improve documentation of auto-fetched url arguments (especially regarding
escape sequences in ftp:// urls)
* some whitespace & copyright updates
this should fix [bin/7073] William O Ferry <woferry@warp.wofme.com>,
as well as the metaissues raised in that PR.
calculations need to occur to prevent the calculated xfer rate from being
too fast if ftp(1) is backgrounded for a while during the xfer.
bug found by thor lancelot simon <tls@netbsd.org>.
* implement ftpvis(), which \ quotes the following in the given string:
SP, TAB, \, CR, "
* use ftpvis() in complete_ambiguous(), to escape characters in a word
which would confuse makeargv()/slurpstring().
* set setvbuf(ttyout, NULL, _IOLBF, 0) and remove a bunch of fflush(ttyout).
* use fwrite() instead of write() for progressmeter (don't intermix stdio
with non stdio ops)
a response, and return the base64 encoded response. only the `Basic'
scheme is supported.
* implement base64_enc(), which base64 encodes the given buffer
* add support for http response codes 401 "authorization required" and 407
"proxy authorization required", using auth_url(). [requested by veego@]
do_fetch() - which retrieves one file calling fetch_url() or fetch_ftp()
as necessary.
* don't http redirect more than 5 times for a given url
* send `User-Agent: NetBSD-ftp/1.4' header in http requests. (suggested
by Christoph Badura <bad@ora.de>)
* cleanup http return code parser, and add support for:
- 300 `Multiple Choices' - but only if the server returns a
preferred url in a Location: header because i'm *not* adding
a html parser to provide the user with options.
- 305 `Use Proxy [given in Location: header]'. (XXX: not tested)
* support http redirects to non-proxied ftp://urls. (bug discovered by
Chris Demetriou <cgd@netbsd.org>)
* auto-login to an ftp site (using the FTP protocol) if an ftp://host/dir/
style url is given and ftp_proxy is set. whilst this is less orthoganol
with other ftp://host/file urls it's *much* more convenient.
1. changed to use timegm(3) on NetBSD and
2. supply alternative code for other Unix-like OSs
(NetBSD ftp shall be portable for some reasons :-).
This fix closes PR #6448.
NOTE: This should be fixed again if a portable UTC to time_t
conversion method is specified in some standards.
* in autofetch mode, don't attempt to 'cd /' on first xfer (only on
subsequent xfers), as some ftp daemons don't permit that.
[noted by dbj@netbsd.org].
XXX: code could be smarter (but a lot more complicated to boot); this
works for now.
* fix up progress meter display for files once > ~20.47MB has been
transferred. (noted by darren reed)
* use xsignal() for SIGWINCH, so window resizes don't abort xfers on
drainbamaged systems.
* don't assume that TIOCGWINSZ returns a non zero width.
