Apple Events are simply a means for applications to communicate.
Just like you can use AppleScript to tell an application to open a
file (which sends an 'aevt'/'open' Apple Event), you can tell it to
open a URL. So, using the scripting stuff not only implements the
handler in a nice, object-oriented way, it also allows users to use
scripting languages to achieve the same.
If you're not going to go to the trouble of making your application
properly scriptable, which is a non-trivial task, I'd recommend that
you just register a handler for the Apple Event. It's quite
straightforward.
Cheers,
Ken
