---+ Programming with networks on the HP3000

To talk to other network processes from MPE, you have two APIs from which to choose; NetIPC (proprietary to HP3000s but callable from all MPE-based programming languages), and the newer "open" Berkeley sockets interface, callable only from "C". Both perform basically the same function, and in fact call the same low-level routines, though the Berkeley sockets API does allow access to UDP-based functions which NetIPC does not.
