[erlang-questions] URL parsing and construction

[Nicholas Gerakines]

I'm surprised that no one has written a yecc parser for this. Any volunteers? I'd be *really* interested in one.

 I looked at it and it gave me the clues for writing my own.  The yaws parser, however, can't cope with URLs of the form "<protocol>://<user>:<password>@<host>:<port>/<path>".  Specifically it doesn't support user/password combinations.
 
 The code I wrote based on their parser handles it, but it's a bit obscenely large.  I'm not sure how to make it smaller, but it works well enough for my purposes at this time.
