same thing for me (macOS 10.3.9):  the output of URLEncode is unusable.  
The strangest thing is that it converts slash caracters into %3A
for instance I get
file%3A%2F%2F%2FVolumes%2FSilverTouch+500+Go%2FUsers%2Fchaplais%2FDocume 
nts%2FEssais%2FEssai_XeTeX%2FXeTeX-notes.pdf
Is there a way to report this kind of bug?
