How do I create my own URL protocol? (e.g. so://…) [closed]

Answer 1

It's called the protocol. The only thing that prevents you from making your own protocol is you have to:

1. Write a browser or user agent of some kinds that understands that protocol, both in its URL form and in the actual data format
2. Write a server that understands that protocol
3. Preferably, have a specification for the protocol so that browser and server can continue to work together.

Windows makes #1 really easy, an in many cases this is all you actually need. Viz:
