File URI Specification ?

[Jaap Karssenberg]

Hi all,

Can someone point me to a copy of the file uri specification ? The wiki 
page http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Standards_2ffile_2duri_2dspec is 
broken.

I'm struggling with the various version of the file:// uri I get with 
drag-n-drop from various applications on various platforms :( so I would 
like to know what the Good Way to handle these is.
