Googling "perl parse url" brought up plenty of promising looking
candidates. Here's one:

IDL does have regular expressions, although I haven't tried to see if
they can do as much as perl (they probably can). So you can always
take one of those regular expressions and just convert it to an IDL
regular expression. IDL does use different syntax than perl, so it
would take some work. You would also have to know a lot about the IDL
regular expression system, which I'm afraid I can't help you with.
There's a website somewhere that explains it all, but I can't find it
at the moment. Someone here knows though...
