NAME connect - initiate a tcp connection SYNOPSIS varargs void connect(string ipnumber, int port, string protocol) DESCRIPTION Initiate a telnet or tcp connection to the specified host and port, and associate the connection with this object when it is established. The protocol may be "telnet" or "tcp", or it may be omitted to default to "tcp". When the connection succeeds, open() will be called in obj. If it fails or times out, close() will be called in obj. After the connection is established, obj will be a normal user object. ERRORS An error will result if the object was already has a connection, port, or editor associated with it. If the number of existing port and connection objects is equal to the value of status()[ST_UTABSIZE], calling connect() results in an error.
