niceSocketsDo :: IO a -> IO a

Sets up the system for networking. Similar to the built-in withSocketsDo (and actually, calls it), but also sets the SIGPIPE handler so that signal is ignored.

Example:

 main = niceSocketsDo $ do { ... }

connectTCP :: HostName -> PortNumber -> IO Socket

connectTCPAddr :: SockAddr -> IO Socket

listenTCPAddr :: SockAddr -> Int -> IO Socket

showSockAddr :: SockAddr -> IO String
