sockets

[Ed Hilovsky]

Wow, we always figure out a way to compensate for the fact that they can't
count sockets. ALL other systems can figure out when you CLOSE A SOCKET,
it's not in use. Unbelievable that their socket licenses are tied to filepro
processes. Maybe I'm just stupid, but I can't see how the two are tied
together. No wonder........

One way of doing this was suggested by John Esak in his FilePro Survivor
Series...
Put the variables you need in the new SYSTEM routine in environment
variables.  From within the routine get the environment variables, run your
socket process, and then exit when it's done.
