Escape URL (escurl)

Encode or decodes text for the URL

Description

escurl takes input from either stdin or the parameters and returns the same data, escaped for the URL.

!eschtml does the same process in reverse, where it takes URL escaped data and returns its unescaped counterpart.

Usage

Escape

<stdin> -> escurl -> <stdout>

escurl string to escape -> <stdout>

Unescape

<stdin> -> !escurl -> <stdout>

!escurl string to unescape -> <stdout>

Examples

» out "!? <>" -> escurl
%21%3F%20%3C%3E%0A 

Unescape

out '%21%3F%20%3C%3E%0A' -> !escurl
!? <>
