Add socket name `esrv-USERID-SYSTEMNAME' for emacsserver.

@lisp
(if (some conditions are met) (server-start))
@end lisp

When this is done, Emacs starts a subprocess running a program called
@samp{server}.  @samp{server} creates a Unix domain socket, named
@file{.emacs_server}, in the user's home directory.

To get your news reader, mail reader, etc., to invoke
@samp{emacsclient}, try setting the environment variable @code{EDITOR}
(or sometimes @code{VISUAL}) to the value @samp{emacsclient}.  You may
have to specify the full pathname of the @samp{emacsclient} program
