What does "already" exactly means ? I pushed the colon '(?: . "%3A")
into this org-link-escape-chars list, and I made a trial with a link
like this:
[[file://localhost/c%3A/msys/1.0/temp/jay.html][link]]
I get this message: "if: No such file:
//localhost/c%3A/msys/1.0/temp/jay.html", evaluating the full org.el on
the link you gave does not make it either because I get the message that
org-complete cannot be loaded.

Ok, you mean that some version of org already does the job, but not the
org that is on the official Git depo ?

I have no idea of the consequences, I can be a beta tester of it, but
for the time being this code does not work with the kind of link which I
use.

The following is just comments on the code, most of it is a matter of
taste, which you may well disagree with.
1. In the org.el file in the link which you provided I found also these
functions org-entry-protect-space & org-entry-restore-space which
does also some escaping, why not use a unique function
2. In the function org-link-escape, there is a lambda expression
(lambda (sequence)
(format "%%%.2X" sequence))
The argument name should be sequence-element rather than sequence.
3. In org-link-unescape, there are 3 substringing-or-concatenations, but
you could make it simpler by a single replace-match and using a start-position in the
string-match. That would look like this (*not tested*):
(defun org-link-unescape (str)
"Unhex hexified unicode strings as returned from the JavaScript function
encodeURIComponent. E.g. `%C3%B6' is the german Umlaut `ö'."
(setq str (or str ""))
(let ((case-fold-search t)
(pos 0))
(while (string-match "\\(%[0-9a-f][0-9a-f]\\)+" str pos)
(setq pos (+ pos (/ (- (match-end 0) (match-beginning 0))
3))
str (replace-match
(org-link-unescape-compound (upcase (match-string 0 str); hex
))
t t str))))
str))
My feeling that the kind of code above is slightly simpler in
execution as there is only one string manipulation at each
iteration instead of two, and also easier to maintain as is has
fewer use cases (i.e. it does not really matter if the escaped
sequence is at the end of string or not). You also avoid some
intermediate variables like `replacement' as the use of
replace-match make it self explanatory that the result of
org-link-unescape-compound is a replacement.
3. in org-link-unescape-compound,
(remove "" (split-string hex "%"))
can be replaced by (cdr (split-string hex "%")) because there is
always only one empty string in the sequence and it is in the 1st
place.
4. in org-link-unescape-compound, you could have made fewer comparison
by replacing code
(shift
(if (= 0 eat) ;; new byte
(if (>= val 252) 6
(if (>= val 248) 5
(if (>= val 240) 4
(if (>= val 224) 3
(if (>= val 192) 2 0)))))
6))
(xor
(if (= 0 eat) ;; new byte
(if (>= val 252) 252
(if (>= val 248) 248
(if (>= val 240) 240
(if (>= val 224) 224
(if (>= val 192) 192 0)))))
128)))
by (*not tested*):
(shift-xor
(if (= 0 eat) ;; new byte
(if (>= val 252) '(6 . 252)
(if (>= val 248) '(5 . 248)
(if (>= val 240) '(4 . 240)
(if (>= val 224) '(3 . 224)
(if (>= val 192) '(2 . 192) '(0. 0))))))
'(6 . 128)))
(shift (car shift-xor))
(xor (cdr shift-xor))
the code above looks more concise to me, depending on val it may also
run faster.
hoping that the above helps.
