;;; url-coding.el --- Support for the web's URL encoding.
At least some similar functionality is included in the "url" elisp
package: https://savannah.gnu.org/projects/url/
The above web page says the package as a separate entity is obsolete and
has been incorporated into the GNU Emacs.
Anyway, it might save some compatibility headache later if we'd setup a
separate "url" XEmacs package, eg. by prying out the latest and greatest
files that comprised the original "url" package from GNU Emacs CVS, and
include url-encoding.el in it as an additional file, or merge it with
the existing files in the package if appropriate.
