URL Scheme Handled by a Rev Application

Hello

I found the following text in this page...
http://www.euronet.nl/~tekelenb/playground/security/URLschemes/

--------------------------------------------------
"The Finder automatically registers all applications as it becomes  
aware of them, such as [...] when the user navigates to a folder  
containing them."

Part of that registration involves LaunchServices (an under-the-hood  
thing, somewhat similar/related to InternetConfig) to check if a  
thusly found application advertises itself as being capable of  
handling a specific URL scheme. If the executable can do http for  
example, it will contain that information in such a way that Finder  
can access it (and pass the info on to LaunchServices).
--------------------------------------------------
Does anybody know how to include this type of information into OSX Rev  
applications?
