.TH socket_tcp 3
.SH NAME
socket_tcp \- create a non-blocking TCP/IP stream socket
.SH SYNTAX
.B #include <socket.h>

int \fBsocket_tcp\fP();
.SH DESCRIPTION
socket_tcp creates a non-blocking TCP/IP stream socket and returns a
file descriptor pointing to that socket.  If something goes wrong,
socket_tcp returns -1, setting errno appropriately, without allocating
any resources.

.SH EXAMPLE
  #include <socket.h>

  int \fIs\fR;
  char \fIip\fR[4];
  uint16 \fIp\fR;

  \fIs\fR = socket_tcp();
  socket_bind4(s,ip,p);
  socket_connect4(s,ip,p);

.SH BUGS
It is called socket_tcp instead of socket_tcp4 to be compatible with DJ
Bernstein's original implementation.
