it's video/vnd.vivo
this is a little off topic, but here'a a crash-course in HTTP for all you
guys out there with a typing disabbility (i.e. people who do web
development in GUIs and forget about typed-in commands and interface
protocols)
A. if you have it installed, it's in your netscape config under
"applications", look for the filetype of vivo
B. if it's not: simple. you go to a URL with a vivo file behind it and do
a manual http request, then sit back and watch the screen. what's that,
never done a manual request? here's how:
I found a vivo file: http://www.vivo.com/dldv2/install.viv
here's the "dialog" with the server:
~]# telnet www.vivo.com 80
Trying 208.147.89.85...
Connected to vivo.real.com.
Escape character is '^]'.
GET /dldv2/install.viv HTTP1.0
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
