Hello, World. Is there any way that I can send a broadcast message
on a socket using family AF_INET, type SOCK_DGRAM? I just
wanna make a process that will broadcast a message until someone
picks it up. The process then kills itself after someone says they
got it. Any help or references would be appreciated. A *small*
code example would be super. Thanx a bundle.

...Bill Nickerson.
