processing:\\ links

On sketch pages exported from Processing, a link to the .pde file is provided. However, this isn't too useful - if the browser or server does not identify it as a text file, it is downloaded and you cannot open it with Processing without manually creating a sketch folder for it.
It would be handy to have Processing accept "processing:\\" links which specify the root directory of a Processing applet, from which it downloads the /data directory and .pde file into a temporary sketch (perhaps a "web" sketchbook should be added for this).
Since I don't think data files are uploaded, you might have to download the .jar file and .pde files and extract the /data stuff from the archive.

Interesting. On my browsers (Mozilla-Firebird, Konqueror) it opens as a text file, (which is nice).

if you are forced to download the pde file (rather than open it in your browser), are you able to open it using a text editor (such as notepad)?

Well, I use a Mac most of the time, and Safari's behavior varies - I think it depends on the server's content-type settings.
When downloaded, they try to open with Processing, but it just ignores the file. To view source, I have to drop it into TextEdit or BBEdit.
