This module provides access to the BSD \emph{socket} interface.
-It is available on \UNIX{} systems that support this interface.
+It is available on all modern \UNIX{} systems, Windows, MacOS, BeOS,
+OS/2, and probably additional platforms.
For an introduction to socket programming (in C), see the following
papers: \citetitle{An Introductory 4.3BSD Interprocess Communication
Tutorial}, by Stuart Sechrest and \citetitle{An Advanced 4.3BSD
Interprocess Communication Tutorial}, by Samuel J. Leffler et al,
both in the \citetitle{\UNIX{} Programmer's Manual, Supplementary Documents 1}
-(sections PS1:7 and PS1:8). The \UNIX{} manual pages for the various
-socket-related system calls are also a valuable source of information
-on the details of socket semantics.
+(sections PS1:7 and PS1:8). The platform-specific reference material
+for the various socket-related system calls are also a valuable source
