I believe there are some obscure protocol families that have more than one address family, which is why the two concepts exist in the API. However there's an enormous amount of code that muddles them up, but this doesn't matter for the Internet protocols.

The GPL explicitly allows commercial use. The commercially problematic aspect of the GPL is that derived versions of GPLed software must be distributed with source (and all the intellectual property exposed). This does not propagate to works created using GPLed software. Tony. -- F.A.N.Finch [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] +44-7970-401-426 "Plenty more letters in the alphabet"

Indeed, in Modula-3, RETURN and EXIT are defined in terms of exceptions. I like the idea of the non-deterministic exception system that has been proposed, but it'll be interesting to see how well it works in real life... Tony.
