title: Registering a URL protocol handler in a multiple platforms
body: <p>I an wanting to create a Java application that is installed on multiple platforms (Windows,Mac OS, Linux) as a part of this install I wish to register a URL protocol handler, so that my app loads when links are clicked.</p>
  
  <p>i.e. I want something like this: myprotocol://example.com</p>
  
  <p>Is there any sort of consolidated way of doing this? Or some sort of framework that extrapolates the difference across the different OS's.</p>
