Pf url

Purpose: Outputs a URL-encoded formatted string.

 pf-url <format> , <variable> [ , <variable> ]... \
     [ to-error ] \
     [ to <string> ]

pf-url is the same as pf-out, except that the output is URL-encoded. This means such output is suited for use in URL parameters.

Examples

Create a URL based on arbitrary strings used as URL parameters - for instance space would be encoded as "%20" in the final output:

 @<a href='<<p-path>>/update?val=<<pf-url "Purchased %s for %ld dollars", piece_desc, price>>'>Log transaction</a>

See pf-out for more examples.
