Yes, and while we're at it, "
http://" is too hard to understand. It
should be "web://" ! The documentation for the fish KIOslave doesn't
explain why it's called "fish", but I'd guess some programmer thought
it'd be A) amusing B) easy to remember. I don't have time right now to
grovel through the KIOslave source and figure out the details. Please
note that s
ftp:// can be used in much the same way as fish:// AFAICT,
at least in konqueror 3.5.5. People may find this more palatable since
sftp is a reasonably well-known program.
(And there's now a groupwise:// KIOslave, though its documentation is
missing for some reason. Oh, the huge manatee!)
