hi there,

my wget (GNU Wget 1.10) on a crux-based system
simply truncates the # and everything after

in contrast to the faq (http://www.gnu.org/software/wget/faq.html):

3.3 How do I download a URL with funny characters in it?
Try putting single or double quotes around the URL:
wget 'http://my.funny/$url&with%characters special;to|my#operating<system'


i have to replace the # by %23 manually, or by a bash
${P/\#/%23}-expression - but i was not able to find anything special about #
in the manpage - what does this special parsing, and can it be considered a
bug?

sincerly,
