That makes little sense to me. curl (I assume you mean libcurl here) gets what
you ask it to get. But sure, URL encoding means that anything that isn't plain
ascii letters are mostly encoded as %HH where HH is hexadecimal. libcurl
doesn't URL encode by itself though.

When you use what strings? Where/who segmentation faults?

Are you talking about actual data that is being transfered? If so, then
libcurl is even less involved since libcurl only transfers data and hands it
over exactly as the server delivered it. How to interpret it or how to deal
with it is left to your app.
