} The url-path of a FTP URL has the following syntax:
}
} <cwd1>/<cwd2>/.../<cwdN>/<name>;type=<typecode>
}
} Where <cwd1> through <cwdN> and <name> are (possibly encoded) strings
} and <typecode> is one of the characters "a", "i", or "d". The part
} ";type=<typecode>" may be omitted. The <cwdx> and <name> parts may be
} empty. The whole url-path may be omitted, including the "/"
} delimiting it from the prefix containing user, password, host, and
} port.

} The typecode is the type of transfer done in FTP.
