- .SH DESCRIPTION
- This function converts the given input string to an URL encoded string and

- A-Z or 0-9 are converted to their "URL escaped" version (%NN where NN is a
- two-digit hexadecimal number).
- If the \fBlength\fP argument is set to 0 (zero), \fIcurl_easy_escape(3)\fP
- uses strlen() on the input \fBurl\fP to find out the size.
- You must \fIcurl_free(3)\fP the returned string when you're done with it.
- .SH AVAILABILITY
- Added in 7.15.4 and replaces the old \fIcurl_escape(3)\fP function.
- .SH RETURN VALUE
- A pointer to a zero terminated string or NULL if it failed.
