Thank you.  I'll give it a go.

The first one refers to the folder to move, there are no subdirectories.
The second is the host including local path, there might be several
subdirectories.  It's the difference between referring to a folder
(slash only) and the full URL-spec.

Think about it for a minute.  If http://foo/ is mirrored at
ftp://bar/mirrors/foo/ then you need to say 'wwwoffle-mv http/foo/
ftp://bar/mirrors/foo/'.  The following two would NOT work as needed to
merge existing files.

wwwoffle-mv http/foo/ ftp://bar/               -> top-dir instead of sub
wwwoffle-mv http/foo/ http://bar/mirrors/foo/  -> wrong protocol

I hope this time it is more comprehensible.  Paul, don't hesitate to ask
if this needs further clarification.  I might be mistaken, but I think not.
