Can you provide a demo for string-to-string decompression?

I saw the nice demo here: https://pieroxy.net/blog/pages/lz-string/demo.html but it doesn't support decompress a string:

[pieroxy]

How did you get that String ? It looks like a Base64 string, the demo page is meant to compress with compressToUTF16 and represent the data in hexadecimal form. Try to input a short string in the top box and hit compress. You will be able to decompress that.

@pieroxy that string is encoded from this function:

export function lzStringEncode(str) {
    return LZString.compressToEncodedURIComponent(str);
}

Is it possible to decode it in the online demo?

[pieroxy]

Not as of now from the UI. What you can do is press F12 when on the demo page and call LZString directly. For example:

LZString144.compressToEncodedURIComponent("blah blah");
"EYGwhgFgBKlA"
LZString144.decompressFromEncodedURIComponent("EYGwhgFgBKlA");
"blah blah"

@pieroxy yes, it works!

Can you put this function into the UI?

[pieroxy]

I can sure do that, yes.

@pieroxy thanks! Looking forward to it!
