.SH DESCRIPTION
This function converts the given input \fBstring\fP to an URL encoded string
This function converts the given input \fIstring\fP to a URL encoded string
and returns that as a new allocated string. All input characters that are not
a-z, A-Z, 0-9, '-', '.', '_' or '~' are converted to their "URL escaped"
version (%NN where NN is a two-digit hexadecimal number).
If the \fBlength\fP argument is set to 0 (zero), \fIcurl_easy_escape(3)\fP
uses strlen() on the input \fBurl\fP to find out the size.
If \fIlength\fP is set to 0 (zero), \fIcurl_easy_escape(3)\fP uses strlen() on
the input \fIstring\fP to find out the size.
You must \fIcurl_free(3)\fP the returned string when you're done with it.

If you want to do a zero-byte POST, you need to set
\fICURLOPT_POSTFIELDSIZE(3)\fP explicitly to zero, as simply setting
\fICURLOPT_POSTFIELDS(3)\fP to NULL or "" just effectively disables the
