Obfuscate URLs so they aren't spoilers

Commentary

obfusurl.el provides obfusurl, a command that will obfuscate an URL under the cursor. This might be useful if you are writing out an URL for someone but the URL itself might spoil the surprise.

For example, this:

<URL:http://www.davep.org/emacs/>

is turned into this:

<URL:http://www.davep.org/%65%6d%61%63%73/>

The latest obfusurl.el is always available from:

   <URL:https://github.com/davep/obfusurl.el>
   <URL:https://github.com/%64%61%76%65%70/%6f%62%66%75%73%75%72%6c%2e%65%6c>

Thanks

Andy Sawyer [email protected] for initially pointing out that URLs with percent escapes already in them would get broken.

Kevin Rodgers [email protected] for suggesting a method of fixing the above.

Toby Speight [email protected] for pointing out that I needed to cater for reserved characters.
