I've been trying out iolib yesterday, and unfortunately couldn't find any proper documentation. I therefore started reading the source. I've noticed net.sockets:make-socket which appears to be the public interface to create a new socket.
Iolib's make-socket is largely compatible with Allegro's so you can find documentation at http://www.franz.com/support/documentation/current/doc/operators/socket/make...
Nice to know (I'm relatively new to Common Lisp and only have used SBCL).
You can specify address and port with the keywords :local-host and :local-port. To obtain an unbound socket, use :local-host nil .
This indeed worked great. Thanks!
