19.0.0 released Nov 08, 2023
Decode web
Purpose: Decode web(HTML)-encoded string.

decode-web <string> [ output-length [ define ] <decoded length> ] [ input-length <length> ]

decode-web will decode <string> (created by encode-web or other web-encoding software) and store the result back into it (i.e it will be modified). "output-length" clause lets you get the length of the decoded string (which is always lesser or equal than the length of the encoded string) in <decoded length>, which can be created with optional "define". To decode only a number of leading bytes in <string>, use "input-length" clause and specify <length>.

See encode-web.
Examples
Decode web-encoded string "str", after which it will hold a decoded string. "dec_len" will be the length (in bytes) of that string:
decode-web str output-length define dec_len
