Hi,
I'm now reading some 450 old list messages and found this topic.
Be warned that to-url is just a shortcut for make url!, and does not
work as expected (it does not encode strings into usable URLs).
You should indeed write a working translator yourself.
It does not encode % and character codes higher than 127. This example
includes such character and will probably be damaged by email transfer:
>> to-url "%ŚÇ"
== %ŚÇ
