Graphical applications using the GTK library have that feature. It's not a 'linux' feature per-se. If it works, use it, that's what it's there for, you'll have a hard time making it do what you want otherwise.

The alt-number trick is an ancient thing from the days when everyone used ASCII and QDOS.

NAME
WebCommon::urlEncode - URL encode a string SYNOPSIS
String urlEncode( String x ) ARGUMENTS
x The string to encode DESCRIPTION
URL encode a string. You should use this to encode reserved characters in URLs that you wish to be passed literally. // trying to pass "http://www.example.com" as a parameter url = "http://localhost/test.cgi?url="; url += urlEncode("http://www.example.com"); // url = http://localhost/test.cgi?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.example.com Note that in the example above, encoding the whole URL would be incorrect - that would create a relative URL beginning "http://".
