(dun-special-object): Floppy disk will melt in inventory or room, regardless of whether or not Stallman statuette is around. (dun-examine): You can examine objects in the jar without taking them out. (dun-take): You can take objects from the jar while you are on the bus. (dun-dig): Message from digging on the bus is the same as when you dig and don't find anything. (dun-climb): No longer errors out of the game when argument to "climb" is invalid. (dun-put): You can now put things in the jar, even if you are on the bus. (dun-special-move): "In" or "Out" command tells you if you are already on or off the bus. (dun-sauna-heat): Changed "begin to sweat" to "are perspiring" so that it makes sense whether you are heating up or cooling down. (dun-help): Changed author e-mail address, added web page. Added hint for batch mode. (*global*): Fixed spelling of Presely in global object list. (*global*): Added coconuts, tank, and lake as objects that are recognized. (*global*): Added `slip' as another way of describing the paper, and `chip' as another way of describing the CPU. (*global*): Upcase abbreviations of directions in room descriptions. (dun-login): Fixed erroneous login message to better-describe ftp limitations. (dun-rlogin): Added error message if user tries to rlogin back to pokey. (dun-load-d): Fixed so that if restore file isn't found which in non-batch mode, window will switch back to game.

;;; Commentary:

;; Notes on TCP package:
;;
;; This package provides a TCP/IP stream emulation for GNU Emacs. If
;; the function `open-network-stream' is not defined in Emacs, but
;; your operating system has a capability of network stream
;; connection, this tcp package can be used for communicating with
;; NNTP server.
;;
;; The tcp package runs inferior process which actually does the role
;; of `open-network-stream'.  The program `tcp' provided with this
;; package can be used for such purpose.  Before loading the package,
;; compile `tcp.c' and install it as `tcp' in a directory in the emacs
;; search path. If you modify `tcp.c', please send diffs to the author
;; of GNUS.  I'll include some of them in the next releases.

;;; Code:

(provide 'tcp)

(defvar tcp-program-name "tcp"
  "*The name of the program emulating open-network-stream function.")

(defun open-network-stream (name buffer host service)
  "Open a TCP connection for a service to a host.
Returns a subprocess-object to represent the connection.
Input and output work as for subprocesses; `delete-process' closes it.
Args are NAME BUFFER HOST SERVICE.
NAME is name for process.  It is modified if necessary to make it unique.
BUFFER is the buffer (or buffer-name) to associate with the process.
 Process output goes at end of that buffer, unless you specify
 an output stream or filter function to handle the output.
 BUFFER may be also nil, meaning that this process is not associated
 with any buffer
Third arg is name of the host to connect to.
Fourth arg SERVICE is name of the service desired, or an integer
 specifying a port number to connect to."
  (let ((proc (start-process name buffer 
			     tcp-program-name
			     host 
			     (if (stringp service)
				 service
			       (int-to-string service))
			     )))
    (process-kill-without-query proc)
    ;; Return process
