Hi,
I'm the lead developer for Blog Torrent, a simplified tracker and client
for BitTorrent. An important part of the user experience is being able
to have seamless uploads and downloads with BitTorrent after the initial
install. On Windows/Linux we currently do this by serving files
containing the information the client needs to start the upload/download
with a mime-type of either application/x-bittorent or
application/x-blogtorrent. We'd like to avoid new URL schemes because
they're not backwards compatible with other BitTorrent clients.
It seems that the only way to make files of certain mimetypes
automatically open with the correct application is to create a browser
plugin that handles that mimetype and have that plugin open the file. Is
that correct? If not, how do I do this and where is it documented?
If that is correct, where can I find the latest documentation on
creating Safari plugins? Can I use a simple Mozilla plugin with Safari?
The most recent document I can find is dated May 2001.
