Hello, Epanda:

I generally make changes to netrw.vim before I get around to changing
the document. In this case I've just made v141b, and I've changed it a
bit more. If, instead of <.netrc> one uses <MACHINE> in the
g:netrw_ftp_cmd, then netrw will use the current hostname/machinename
and swap it in the stead of MACHINE, tacking on ".ftp", so it'll be as
if one had ftp -s:c:\users\userid\hostname.ftp . This method means
that one can have multiple .ftp files with logins and passwords and
netrw will use them as needed.

Chip Campbell
