Yup, that's what I got too.
As for getting the URL from the finder. It's a property of every
file. Ask for it by name at your local finder. :)
Thanks.
Very handy for posting!

Lets say I post a file URL...
-->"file://localhost/System/Library/ScriptingAdditions/"
That file should be the same on both your box and mine. And if you try
it, it should open the scripting additions folder on your box. This
helps loads when you're trying to explain to someone, in an email,
where to put things.
