Hi Derick, I like it too, but (and I hate this "but") its not an rfc2396 compliant scheme name. Valid characters in the scheme part are: alpha digit "+" "-" "."
So how are these? crypt-des://blaat.txt crypt-blowfish://blaat.txt compress.zlib://file.gz compress.bzip2://file.bz2 crypt+des://blaat.txt crypt+blowfish://blaat.txt I think I prefer your parentheses, but a second best would be using "-" (IMHO). I think it is important that our wrapper urls can be parsed using parse_url() without changing it's behaviour. Hmmm. I really like the parentheses, it's just not standards compliant :-/ --Wez.
