Detailed description 
As an tracker co-admin I sometimes need to debug tracker issues and it's handy to have a small converter:

I got as far as this:

> cat url
#!/usr/local/bin/ruby
require "cgi"
require "rubytorrent"

puts ARGV[0].to_s
puts ARGV[0].to_s.to_bencoding
puts CGI::escape(ARGV[0].to_s.to_bencoding)


but the generated doesnt seem right compared to bencoded + urlencoded strings by other clients:

> ruby url 2a4074ef5225865057cc49cd698b8477199779b6
