This software allows users to decode URI strings that are percent escaped, as well as encode strings into percent escaped strings for use in URLs.
One common issue that users face when working with URI strings is the limited character set available. Specifically, URIs can only include ASCII characters, which can make it difficult to work with strings that use other characters - such as 2-byte characters. However, URI Escape makes it easy to express these characters using the "% + hex number" form, which is known as percent escape.
To get started with URI Escape, you first need to install the scripting addition by copying it to the ~Library/ScriptingAdditions/ folder. After installation, you can start working with URI strings right away. Keep in mind that any text encoding used before the escaping string must use the UTF-8 character encoding. If you're working with system's text encoding, the string will be automatically converted to UTF-8 prior to percent escape encoding.
All in all, URI Escape is a powerful and free tool that makes it easy to work with encoded URI strings. Whether you're decoding URL strings or encoding regular strings into percent escaped strings, URI Escape is a must-have addition to any developer's toolkit.
