Script Summary: Replaces "," with "%2C" suitably for broken Twitter

Version: 0.1

In the textarea of twitter.com, some URL are badly tinyurl'ized. e.g., I know a URL includes "," needed to be escaped to "%2C" to get right tinyurl.

I wrote this junk because I wanna forget any bad know-hows, because my memories are volatile.
Let's make the world DRY(tm).

[UPDATES]

Sep 12:
I saw Twitter brakes some other characters in URL, like "#" other than ",". I recoginized this problem. (just a notice, or my note)

before Aug comes:
My bug report ID was *deleted* by twitter.com _without_ any message or notice, but the bug is still there, ofcourse. :-p

Jul 10:
Wrote roughly and uploaded this script.
Then I reported this to twitter.com as a bug officially.
