Subject: [webricken:129] Invoking a FileHandler from a mount_proc?

I have a mount_proc that handles a range of URL's.  After doing
some initial processing within the mount_proc, I want to pass a
subset of these URL's to a FileHandler; for the rest of the URL's
I just want to output a message.

A simplified version of what I want to do looks like this:

  my_mount_proc = lambda {
    |req, res|
    # First, do some initial processing for all URL's that are
    # passed in to this proc.  But then ...
    if req.path =~ /some-sort-of-special-pattern/ then
      ### send the request to a FileHandler
    else
      res.body = 'No FileHandler -- just this simple message'
      res['Content-type'] = 'text/plain'
    end
  }

What do I put between the 'if' and the 'else' in order to send the
matching requests to a FileHandler?

Thanks in advance.
