making find output suitable for use in URLs

[Michael O'Donnell]

Given the output of a find run, say, thus:

   find / -print >/tmp/fileList

...that includes lines that look like this:

   /x/y/z/fileOr Directory% that_has_troublesome characters_in_its name

...and given that my WWW server is willing to serve
all such files mentioned in that fileList as long as
they're mentioned properly, is there a canned method
of converting that fileList into a list of names with
all troublesome characters properly escaped?
