curl password issue

[Andre via Digitalmars-d-learn]

Hi,

Curl has some issues with passwords containing special characters
like the hash key (#).
The password will not be accepted although it is correctly
set with the method setAuthencication("user", "pass1234#");

I know this is more a Curl issue than a DLang issue but it
is very frustrating and for unexperienced users very hard to
find out why the application is working for some users
and for some others not...

Could the documentation for setAuthentication could be enhanced?

Kind regards
André
