The "http" prefix should tell that this is a URL that should be retrieved using the http protocol and nothing else. A URL with a trailing slash is still a fully valid URL, and doesn't not signify directories or anything like that on the www. I would really like netrw to just pass any http-prefixed URLs directly to curl/wget, and definately not attaching anything to them! :)
Hmm, well using your example (http://www.grida.no/arctic/) both curl and wget yield an empty file. Regards, Chip Campbell
