I don't disagree. But in writing my book on Revolution, I need to try 
out all the variations to see if and how they work. In this case, your 
code is correct and simple but the docs clearly say that I should be 
*able* to use the URL approach. I can envision times when I'd like to 
be able to use a common routine to access a stack that may be either on 
the user's drive or on the net somewhere and in that case, being able 
to use the URL approach would be more efficient.

The dox "bug" is simply that there's no explicit example of how to do 
this and when you look at the other code examples available, they seem 
to imply that you should use the file: protocol. The binfile: protocol 
isn't mentioned in those contexts.
