 * where name is a path-like string (ie dir1/dir2/....) See RFC 1738
 * for the complete description of Uniform Resource Locators. The
 * ";AUTH=mech" addition comes from RFC 2384, "POP URL Scheme".

/**
 * g_url_new: create a Gurl object from a string
 *
 * @url_string: The string containing the URL to scan
 * 
 * This routine takes a gchar and parses it as a
 * URL of the form:
 *   protocol://user;AUTH=mech:password@host:port/path
 * There is no test on the values. For example,
 * "port" can be a string, not only a number!
 * The Gurl structure fields are filled with
 * the scan results. When a member of the 
 * general URL can not be found, the corresponding
 * Gurl member is NULL.
 * Fields filled in the Gurl structure are allocated
 * and url_string is not modified. 
 * 
 * Return value: a Gurl structure containing the URL items.
