Probably I was expecting too much, thinking ffap would interpret
banyan.dlut.edu.cn/~ygh as
http://banyan.dlut.edu.cn/~ygh
when I put the cursor on it and hit C-x C-f. I got:
Pinging banyan.dlut.edu.cn (The People's Republic of China)...
byte-code: banyan.dlut.edu.cn/discard Temporary failure in name resolution
I wanted it to just try and get the web page which would register the
request with wwwoffle. Instead it is trying to do something more fancy.
See, given such names, wwwoffle knows what to do:
$ wwwoffle banyan.dlut.edu.cn/~ygh
Getting: http://banyan.dlut.edu.cn/~ygh
So does mozilla.
Lynx too perhaps, but I'm not sure. Maybe it forgot $http_proxy in
this case.
$ lynx banyan.dlut.edu.cn/~ygh

I think it should interpret that as
ftp://banyan.dlut.edu.cn/~ygh
or
/@banyan.dlut.edu.cn:~ygh
or
[insert default tramp syntax here]
