/* NAME
/*	inet_connect 3
/* SUMMARY
/*	connect to TCP listener
/* SYNOPSIS
/*	#include <connect.h>
/*
/*	int	inet_windowsize;
/*
/*	int	inet_connect(addr, block_mode, timeout)
/*	const char *addr;
/*	int	block_mode;
/*	int	timeout;
/* DESCRIPTION
/*	inet_connect connects to a TCP listener at
/*	the specified address, and returns the resulting file descriptor.
/*
/*	Specify an inet_windowsize value > 0 to override the TCP
/*	window size that the client advertises to the server.
/*
/*	Arguments:
/* .IP addr
/*	The destination to connect to. The format is host:port. If no
/*	host is specified, a port on the local host is assumed.
/*	Host and port information may be given in numerical form
/*	or as symbolical names.
/* .IP block_mode
/*	Either NON_BLOCKING for a non-blocking socket, or BLOCKING for
/*	blocking mode.
/* .IP timeout
/*	Bounds the number of seconds that the operation may take. Specify
/*	a value <= 0 to disable the time limit.
/* DIAGNOSTICS
/*	The result is -1 when the connection could not be made.
/*	The nature of the error is available via the global \fIerrno\fR
/*	variable.
/*	Fatal errors: other system call failures.
/* LICENSE
/* .ad
/* .fi
/*	The Secure Mailer license must be distributed with this software.
