Phil,
I cannot confirm what you say using BASH under either a Windows console or
RXVT. Everything seems to work as expected.
Tell us more about your shell / emulator configuration, what you're doing
and the specific unwanted characters that appear.
By the way, is your $SHELL setting consistent with the shell you use for
interactive use? I'm pretty sure the ftp program is going to use $SHELL as
the shell that executes "!" commands.
Another thing, are your .profile / .bashrc (or whichever get executed by
your shell during startup) properly written to be quiet when operating
non-interactively?
