@deffn {Scheme Procedure} socketpair family style proto
@deffnx {C Function} scm_socketpair (family, style, proto)
Return a pair of connected (but unnamed) socket ports of the
type specified by @var{family}, @var{style} and @var{proto}.
Many systems support only socket pairs of the @code{AF_UNIX}
family. Zero is likely to be the only meaningful value for
@var{proto}.
Return a pair, the @code{car} and @code{cdr} of which are two unnamed
socket ports connected to each other. The connection is full-duplex,
so data can be transferred in either direction between the two.
@var{family}, @var{style} and @var{proto} are as per @code{socket}
above. But many systems only support socket pairs in the
@code{PF_UNIX} family. Zero is likely to be the only meaningful value
for @var{proto}.
