In re: the socket() thing...

I remember getting into something (forget what) back in the early 90's, 
writing something (again, I forget what) and realizing what I needed to 
do to open a socket to a remote endpoint.

I remember thinking "wait, I can't just open("hostname:port", O_TCP); ???"

And, horror of all horrors, I need to deal with little/big endian 
things? ntohs(), htons(), et al?

jeez...
