Yeah.  You probably won't find TRAMP much help in writing that, frankly,
because it does a lot of things that are entirely irrelevant but quite complex
compared to what you want.

Anyway, it hooks in through the `file-name-handler-alist', and the methods
`tramp{,completion-}-file-name-handler' which then go ahead and act on the
path passed by the user.

If you define your problem better for us you can likely get better advice.
