Since	18.0

string  decodeattrib(string str)

Houdini geometry attributes and group names are only allowed to contain letters, numbers, and underscores, and must not begin with a number. Arbitrary strings can be passed through the encodeattrib function to generate a string that obeys these restriction. This function takes one of these encoded strings, and returns the original string. A string that has not been encoded will be returned unmodified.
