I tested it too, with SSL, and it works great! Thanks! No plugin
needed, now.

In the Cryptography-SSL Extensions, I overwrote Url
class>>#urlClassForScheme: to include 'https' mapped to the new
HttpsUrl class. This only works if you have SSL loaded, of course.
I also added HierarchicalUrl>>#= and changed HTTPSocket
class>>#expandUrl:ip:port: to provide an ability to HttpsSocket to
redirect and also to detect infinite redirections, which I
experienced on one of my test urls. Unfortunately, I could not
update HTTPSocket class>>#httpGetDocument:args:accept:request: to
take advantage. It loses the value of CrLf, for some reason. I only
barely added support to the HttpsSocket, so these things will change,
I'm sure.
Cheers,
Robert
