Adding a New Protocol
To add a new protocol -- e.g. wooz:// -- you add the following entries to about:config:
network.protocol-handler.app.<protocol> = /usr/share/bin network.protocol-handler.expose.<protocol> = false network.protocol-handler.external.<protocol> = true
...where in this case <protocol> would be wooz.
The value of the first line may be arbitrary, as Firefox will let you browse for the executable to use when handling a link.
(To add an item to about:config, search for it. The UI will give you the option to add or modify. [1])
