+# Title : urlencode - encode URL data
+# Author : Heiner Steven (heiner.steven@odn.de)
+# Date : 2000-03-15
+# Requires : awk
+# Categories : File Conversion, WWW, CGI
+# SCCS-Id. : @(#) urlencode 1.4 06/10/29
+##########################################################################
+# Description
+# Encode data according to
+# RFC 1738: "Uniform Resource Locators (URL)" and
+# RFC 1866: "Hypertext Markup Language - 2.0" (HTML)
+#
+# This encoding is used i.e. for the MIME type
+# "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"
+#
+# Notes
+# o The default behaviour is not to encode the line endings. This
+# may not be what was intended, because the result will be
+# multiple lines of output (which cannot be used in an URL or a
+# HTTP "POST" request). If the desired output should be one
+# line, use the "-l" option.
+#
+# o The "-l" option assumes, that the end-of-line is denoted by
+# the character LF (ASCII 10). This is not true for Windows or
+# Mac systems, where the end of a line is denoted by the two
+# characters CR LF (ASCII 13 10).
+# We use this for symmetry; data processed in the following way:
+# cat | urlencode -l | urldecode -l
+# should (and will) result in the original data
+#
+# o Large lines (or binary files) will break many AWK
+# implementations. If you get the message
+# awk: record `...' too long
+# record number xxx
+# consider using GNU AWK (gawk).
+#
+# o urlencode will always terminate it's output with an EOL
+# character
+#
+# Thanks to Stefan Brozinski for pointing out a bug related to non-standard
+# locales.
+#
+# See also
+# urldecode
