  The modules described in this chapter implement Internet protocols and 
  support for related technology.  They are all implemented in Python.
! Some of these modules require the presence of the system-dependent
! module \refmodule{socket}\refbimodindex{socket}, which is currently only
! fully supported on \UNIX{} and Windows NT.  Here is an overview:
