This is possibly a Borland specific function. I seems to remember it being used
in DOS programming many years ago. The Ada equivalent depends on what
environment you program in. E.g. Unix or windows.

You may have to write your own versions of that function or use an exisiting
library. Doing it yourself is not neccessarily difficult, but perhaps a lot of
work. If you want to find out how, have a look in the library to see how any
socket routines are done. They should import routines from C libraries.

Try looking around in http://www.adahome.com or http://www.adapower.com/. The
latter may be more appropriate if you use windows.

Yes there is quite a few libraries available.

It is probably possible, but not neccessarily easy to do. You may want to look
this up in the compiler documentation if you can find it.
