Exactly, I need something like the "WaitNextEvent" in the old Mac OS
API but for Socket, that waits for a Socket Event without trashing CPU
time.
I have my app nearly finished but consumes a lot of CPU waiting for
packets, this is a big problem on laptops running on battery power.
I don't know if would be possible to use semaphores for this matter, I
tried it sometime ago but I didn't find a reliable method.
