Hello folks, I'm trying to use drakma to fetch urls that contain utf8 characters but HTTP-REQUEST automatically url encodes any non latin-1 ascii characters.
On my cursory reading of the RFCs, this seems conforming behavor, but in this case it is definitely unwanted. For example, the following url http://translate.google.com/translate_tts?tl=ru&q=вы if entered directly into the browser correctly returns the text-to-speech audo file but when attempting to use HTTP-REQUEST, the url is being url encoded into http://translate.google.com/translate_tts?tl=ru&q=%D0%B2%D1%8B of which google does not url-decode and fails to return the correct data. So, for this case, the url-encoding is unwanted. I am willing to submit patch an additional argument into HTTP-REQUEST to disallow the encoding. Thoughts? Thank you, William
