wget removes one of two trailing slashes on the URL given to it. This is incompatible with Freenet, which uses URLs of this type: http://localhost:8888/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/FreenetHelp// Freenet is just one little program, I'll grant you. But, as I understand it, removing one of the two trailing slashes is done to work around a problem that occurs in a not-so-common situation with some web servers. Regardless of the reason, could we please have an option to turn off this de-slashing? There's a patch attached to the bug report referenced above. -Todd
