Not a protocol. A *protocol handler*. That’s the term for an app that takes care of a URL protocol. So I want to be able to write a foo handler so that when someone clicks on a URL like foo:<some string> in a web browser, my ruby app intercepts that call, receives the URL and handles it. -- SD Ruby mailing list [email protected] http://groups.google.com/group/sdruby
