Parsing Basic Auth from config file fails when password has a pound sign # in it.

[cathelijne]

This is an exact copy of #194 that I submitted with the wrong username:

I have something like this in my configuration file:

login = user:pass:realm
login = [email protected]:password_with_#_in_it:realm 2

Siege -C output:

CURRENT  SIEGE  CONFIGURATION
Mozilla/5.0 (pc-x86_64-linux-gnu) Siege/4.0.9
Edit the resource file to change the settings.
----------------------------------------------
version:                        4.0.9
      [removed for clarity]
www auth:                       credentials:  user:pass:realm
credentials:  [email protected]:password_with_:any

Whatever I try (quoting the whole string, quoting only the password, escaping, urlencoding, trying to put the pass in a var and using that as suggested for the url file in this issue: #189), I cannot make siege understand that the line shouldn't be cut off after the pound sign. Is this just a feature of the parser, or have I overlooked something?

_Including Jeffs answer to #194 _

This looks right: @.***:password_with_#_in_it:realm 2 However, I think you encountered a bug. It's treating the password like a comment. I'll try to provide a fix soon.

This issue was fixed with version 4.1.0 which is in the repo.
