Would I get a string back? An array of > segments? An actual example would be be nice. Ultimately, a list of path segments, yes. Similar to your first (correct) example. With both an absolute and directory indicator. In the case above, 3 segments. Not absolute, not a directory. These segments are then decoded to whatever string they represents, i.e. segment[ 2 ] would contain the string "A/B Testing". As originally provided. The URL can always round trip. If not, something is very wrong. The same problematic applies, to, say, representing an URL in an URL. So, given the following path segments, "cache", "gemini://host/path", and "content", the resulting path should be: cache/gemini%3A%2F%2Fhost%2Fpath/content And not: cache%2Fgemini%3A%2F%2Fhost%2Fpath%2Fcontent Which is clearly nonsensical. > Ah. See, I haven't needed that much functionality yet (and I suspect I > could use my email parsers for that if I really needed it). Yes, email.lua would handle a message/rfc822 part. It's a start :) https://github.com/spc476/LPeg-Parsers/blob/master/email.lua
