parse-fpi - Parse a formal public identifier

Description

Breaks an FPI into its component parts.

Returns an object which can be passed to the (query-parse-fpi) function.

It should be fairly robust, but it won't detect nonsense, so that it won't, for example, object to hello//MyCorp//... as an FPI. Note that the separator between the text class and description is a single space.

See productions 79--90 in ISO 8879.

Argument list

str = string (Given)
