Has anyone got a quick and dirty percent encoding handler?
i.e. I want to turn this:
tell application "Finder"
activate
end tell
into this:
tell application "Finder"
activate
end tell
I thought I’d seen one on this list in the past, but my searches have turned up a "missing value”. :p
How you do it depends a bit on what the purpose is. In this case, I suspect you want:
use AppleScript version "2.4" -- Yosemite (10.10) or later
use framework "Foundation"
use scripting additions
set aString to current application's NSString's stringWithString:"The time has come for all good “men”"
set aString to (aString's stringByAddingPercentEncodingWithAllowedCharacters:(current application's NSCharacterSet's URLQueryAllowedCharacterSet())) as text
Which is quick but really quite clean...
Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.
