+ *
+ * DESCRIPTION
+ *
+ * SILC Net API provides various network routines for applications. It
+ * can be used to create TCP/IP connections and servers. Various utility
+ * functions for resolving various information is also provided.
+ *
+ * On WIN32 systems the SILC Net API must initialized by calling the
+ * silc_net_win32_init and uninitialized when the application ends by
+ * calling the silc_net_win32_uninit function. The initializing must be
+ * done in order to assure that the SILC Net API works correctly.
