Here's some sample code that I had tucked away.  Hope it helps.  This  
could definitely be easier.

No guarantee on this, by the way... I just hacked PATHINFO vs  
mod_rewrite support in at the last second, and this doesn't have any  
fallbacks for people without pretty permalink of one kind or another,  
so you'll have to include that in your code.
