curl_unescape - URL decodes the given string #include <curl/curl.h> "char *curl_unescape( char *" url ", int "length " );" 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. Since 7.15.4, curl_easy_unescape(3) should be used. This function will be removed in a future release. A pointer to a zero terminated string or NULL if it failed. curl_easy_escape(3), curl_easy_unescape(3), curl_free(3), RFC 2396
