#asUrl invokes the URL parser that takes the EXTERNAL string representation of a URL as input. It stays strict to the specification and as such does not allow non-encoded non-ascii characters. If you construct a URL from INTERNAL parts, that's different. It would probably be possible to write a more lenient parser as opposed to a strict one. I have not yet given that idea much thought. > ----- > Cheers, > Sean > -- > Sent from: http://forum.world.st/Pharo-Smalltalk-Users-f1310670.html >
