The rootAllActiveSockets[ function returns
a block containing all socket objects currently
associated with a file descriptor or unix socket.
It provides the basic hook for taking an inventory of all online users, all running daemons, and such.
You may examine socket$S.type to distinguish
different types of sockets, or socket$S.session
to find associated jobs.
It would be more consistent with the Muq design philosophy to provide a class Socket-Set (say), with active sockets appearing as properties, but in this case I felt the extra overhead of introducing another hardwired class to be unjustified.
