-- $server-side
--
-- The following functions allow you to obtain and use 'NS.Socket's useful to
-- the server side of a TCP connection.
--
-- Here's how you could run a TCP server that handles in different threads each
-- incoming connection to port @8000@ at address @127.0.0.1@:
--
-- > listen (Host "127.0.0.1") "8000" $ \(listeningSocket, listeningAddr) -> do
-- > putStrLn $ "Listening for incoming connections at " ++ show listeningAddr
-- > forever . acceptFork listeningSocket $ \(connectionSocket, remoteAddr) -> do
-- > putStrLn $ "Connection established from " ++ show remoteAddr
-- > -- now you may use connectionSocket as you please within this scope,
-- > -- possibly with any of the socketReadS, nsocketReadS or socketWriteD
-- > -- proxies explained below.
--
-- If you keep reading you'll discover there are different ways to achieve
-- the same, some ways more general than others. The above one was just an
-- example using a pretty general approach, you are encouraged to use simpler
-- approaches such as 'serve' if those suit your needs.
