Copying a UTF-8 URL from browser's address bar, gives only the ugly encoded one
When I copy a UTF-8 URL from the browser's address bar (almost any browser on any os), then try to paste it in another text field (to post it on facebook or twitter for example), it gives only the decoded URL, which makes it ugly. For example, in the address bar, the URL appears like this one:
https://www.chaino.com/وذكر
But when trying to copy and paste it in any other place, it gives the following ugly url:
https://www.chaino.com/%D9%88%D8%B0%D9%83%D8%B1
& if I wanted to get the original URL to use it in any place, I used to decode it in this Raw URL Decoder - Online Tool
Question is: is there a short direct way to copy these kind of URLs, and paste it without this hideous process? (may be using chrome extensions or something)
Solution 1:
You can add 'space' at the end of URL in address bar, then you can select it all and copy it directly.
Solution 2:
You can select URL without selecting scheme (e.g. http://
), and copy it. This will give you what you expected.
P.S. The point is to select only part of the link. E.g. you can select whole URL without first character and than add it manually.
