33
This function converts the given input string to an URL encoded string and
34
returns that as a new allocated string. All input characters that are not a-z,
35
A-Z or 0-9 are converted to their "URL escaped" version (%NN where NN is a
36
two-digit hexadecimal number).
38
If the \fBlength\fP argument is set to 0 (zero), \fIcurl_easy_escape(3)\fP
39
uses strlen() on the input \fBurl\fP to find out the size.
41
You must \fIcurl_free(3)\fP the returned string when you're done with it.
43
Added in 7.15.4 and replaces the old \fIcurl_escape(3)\fP function.
45
A pointer to a zero terminated string or NULL if it failed.
