Decoding HTTP requests

[Marc Balmer <marc%msys.ch@localhost>]

I am looking for code to decode HTTP PUT/GET/etc. requests, i.e.
breaking the request down to the variables that have been transmitted,
with proper (de)escaping etc., maybe with file upload capabilities.
Should be written in C and BSD/MIT licensed.

If you know of such a library, I'd be happy to learn of it.

(background:  Trying to add RESTful services to httpd, using Lua to
handle the request.  But I am missing the request decoding part)

tnx,
Marc
