A useful guide to the Berkeley sockets API can be found at
<https://beej.us/guide/bgnet/>. You'll have to translate between the C
idioms and the R idioms, but it's better than having no guide at all.
In particular, R spares you from having to figure out differently-sized
struct sockaddr objects by converting them to string representations of
the addresses (currently limited to IPv4).
