Synopsis

scheme([$some_scheme])

Sets and gets the scheme part of the URI. Such values include: data, file, ftp, gopher, http, https, ldap, mailto, news, nntp, pop, rlogin, rsync, snews, telnet, and ssh. In the case of relative URIs, scheme will return undef; otherwise, scheme will return the scheme in lowercase. With $ some_scheme, scheme will set the scheme of the current URI. scheme will die if the scheme isn’t supported, or if it contains non-US-ASCII characters.
