Subject: Encoding reserved characters in URI query strings
Date: Sun, 5 Feb 2017 14:06:21 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <E255428E-072A-4691-B8D2-A5A68505B392@emory.edu> (raw)
Let's say I want a link to plot x+2 in Wolfram|Alpha. I need to catenate "http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=" and "plot+x%2B2". Is there any way already available in ConTeXt to translate reserved characters like "+" to the percent-hexcode "%2B"?
Something like
\encode[plot x+2]
would become
plot+x%2B2
Or more generally, some languages have a query constructor like this
\queryURI
[http://www.wolframalpha.com/input]
[i=plot x+2]
which would construct the URI
http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=plot+x%2B2
I could write my own, of course. But no need to reinvent the wheel.
TIA,
Michael
