These instructions are incorrect. I can confirm that setting a protocol
does not work in Firefox on Mac OS - there is a bug that's been around
for a long time that prevents associating protocols with an application
and/or path. See this mailing list post:
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/12883
And this bug report:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=471724
My solution for this bug was to install Arch Linux on my Macbook. ;)
