extract_url.pl 1.3.3 (Default branch)
extract_url.pl is a Perl script that extracts URLsfrom either correctly-encoded MIME email messagesor from plain text. It can be used either as apre-parser for a URL selector (such as urlview),or as a standalone URL selector. It is veryconfigurable, can handle URLs that have beenbroken over several lines in format=floweddelsp=yes email messages, and eliminates duplicateURLs. It was designed primarily for use with Mutt,but can be used by for any similar purpose. Theidea is that if you want to access a URL in anemail, you pipe the email to a URL extractor (likethis one), which then lets you select a URL toview in some third program (such as Firefox).License: BSD License (original)Changes:
Sometimes, multipart/alternative parts don'tactually have analternative, which could confuse the script.They're now handledcorrectly, and MIME parsing has been made morerobust.Image

curl_unescape

curl_unescape(3)						  libcurl Manual						  curl_unescape(3)

NAME

       curl_unescape - URL decodes the given string

SYNOPSIS

       #include <curl/curl.h>

       char *curl_unescape( char *url, int length );

DESCRIPTION

       Obsolete function. Use curl_easy_unescape(3) instead!

       This  function  will  convert  the  given URL encoded input string to a "plain string" and return that as a new allocated string. All input
       characters that are URL encoded (%XX where XX is a two-digit hexadecimal number) will be converted to their plain text versions.

       If the 'length' argument is set to 0, curl_unescape() will use strlen() on the input 'url' string to find out the size.

       You must curl_free() the returned string when you're done with it.

AVAILABILITY

       Since 7.15.4, curl_easy_unescape(3) should be used. This function will be removed in a future release.

RETURN VALUE

       A pointer to a zero terminated string or NULL if it failed.
