/*

The Protocol class defines an application level protocol (HTTP, FTP, Gopher,
etc.) to be used by libwww. Please note that access to the local file system
also is considered to be an appliaction level protocol treated identically
to for example the HTTP protocol. The Protocol class does only know about
the application layer protocol and it relies on the
Transport Class to do the actualt communication
with the network, the local file system etc. The protocol class defines an
access method for botg a client and a server. A typical client application
would probably only want to use the client method and a server only the server
method. However, any application can use both which allows it to seemlessly
to change between server and client profile as needed.

Note: The library core does not define any default application
layer protocols - they are all considered part of the application. The library
comes with a default set of protocols including the ones mentioned above
which can be initiated using the function HTProtocolInit() in
HTInit module

This module is implemented by HTProt.c, and it is
a part of the  W3C Sample Code
Library.

An access scheme module takes as a parameter a socket (which is an invalid
socket the first time the function is called), a
request structure containing details of the request,
and the action by which the (valid) socket was selected in the event loop.
When the protocol class routine is called, the anchor element in the request
is already valid (made valid by HTAccess).

This functions registers a protocol module and binds it to a specific access
acheme (the part before the first colon in a URL). For example, the HTTP
 client module is bound to http URLs. The callback function is the function
to be called for loading.
