Hello Kevin,

if you plan to serve static files, may Directory be what you need, see
part06 of the tutorial
http://www.restlet.org/documentation/1.0/tutorial#part06.

Otherwise, you can use the "content-disposition" header (which is not
a standard header, see chapters 15.5 and 19.5 of the HTTP rfc
http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2616.txt). I send you a sample application
(2 classes).

best regards,
Thierry Boileau
