Urgent! - Registering a URL Handler for a RunRev Application

[Mark Smith]

Dave, I may not have fully grasped what you're doing, but is it not a  
case of amending the app's plist (adding a "CFBundleURLTypes" element  
as described in the link), and then creating a an appleEvent handler  
in your app? (see dictionary entry for AppleEvent).

You could amend the Revolution App's pList temporarily to test in the  
IDE, I'd have thought...

Best,

Mark
