curl_unescape - URL decodes the given string
</PRE>
<H2>SYNOPSIS</H2><PRE>
<B>#include</B> <B>&lt;curl/curl.h&gt;</B>
<B>char</B> <B>*curl_unescape(</B> <B>char</B> <B>*</B><I>url</I><B>,</B> <B>int</B> <I>length</I> <B>);</B>
</PRE>
<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2><PRE>
This function will convert the given URL encoded input
string to a "plain string" and return that as a new allo-
cated string. All input characters that are URL encoded
(%XX where XX is a two-digit hexadecimal number, or +)
will be converted to their plain text versions (up to a ?
letter, no + letters to the right of a ? letter will be
converted).
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.
</PRE>
<H2>RETURN VALUE</H2><PRE>
A pointer to a zero terminated string or NULL if it
failed.
