I'm wondering how to allow one process to communicate with another
process. In other words, I want to connect two computers. I've looked up
socket but the explanations are too complex. I think I need a 2-way
conversation with a expert to understand it. Or even better, point me to a
easier module

Well the application of defining ones own error is in a module. For example,
if I make a banking account module, I might define a WithdrawError if there
is a place where a error might occur. That way if client code tries to
withdraw too much, you can have a very descriptive error making it easier t
Apol. For TP:
This is perfect - thanks.

In that case, perhaps you could externally back up all your important stuff

I am not a window user myself but all my friends who upgraded are quite
