+.TH curl_easy_escape 3 "7 April 2006" "libcurl 7.15.4" "libcurl Manual"
+.SH NAME
+curl_easy_escape - URL encodes the given string
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B #include <curl/curl.h>
+.sp
+.BI "char *curl_easy_escape( CURL *" curl ", char *" url ", int "length " );"
+.ad
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+This function converts the given input string to an URL encoded string and
+returns that as a new allocated string. All input characters that are not a-z,
+A-Z or 0-9 are converted to their "URL escaped" version (%NN where NN is a
+two-digit hexadecimal number).
+
+If the \fBlength\fP argument is set to 0 (zero), curl_easy_escape() uses
+strlen() on the input \fBurl\fP to find out the size.
+
+You must \fIcurl_free(3)\fP the returned string when you're done with it.
+.SH AVAILABILITY
+Added in 7.15.4 and replaces the old curl_escape() function.
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+A pointer to a zero terminated string or NULL if it failed.
