== Encode (© &rarr; {{mono|1=&amp;copy;}}) <span class="anchor" id="Encode"></span>==
:Function <code>encode</code> encodes some entity-named characters into that name (for example: <code>&</code> &rarr; <code>&amp;amp;</code>).

Regular sentence:
:"At >100 °F, & with a "burning" sun above, we walked. ©"

In code:
:"<code><nowiki>At >100 °F, & with a "burning" sun above, we walked. ©</nowiki></code>"

Encode:
:<code><nowiki>{{#invoke:decodeEncode|encode|s=At >100 °F, & with a "burning" sun above, we walked. ©|charset=&<>{{!}}°"'&©}}</nowiki></code>

:&rarr;

:<code><nowiki>At &amp;gt;100 &amp;#176;F, &amp;amp; with a &amp;quot;burning&amp;quot; sun above, we walked. &amp;#169;</nowiki></code><!-- used Special:ExpandTemplate -->

:Renders as:

:"At &gt;100 &#176;F, &amp; with a &quot;burning&quot; sun above, we walked. &#169;"
===character set to encode===

Per Lua documentation, only a small set of characters is processed. The characterset can be set (expanded) by using {{para|charset}}.

:Example: {{para|charset|<nowiki><>" \'&</nowiki>}} (the default), {{para|charset|<nowiki><>°"'&©{{!}}</nowiki>}}; characters not in the default will be replaced by their decimal entity: <code>©</code> &rarr; <code>&amp;#169;</code> <small>(hexadecimal number, not decimal nor named &amp;copy;)</small>
