### Socket Related Methods

SysMessage
Prototype |
    void SysMessage( string message );
Purpose | Sends a string as a sysmessage.
Example of Usage |
    mySock.SysMessage( "Isn't the world great?" );

Disconnect
Prototype |
    void Disconnect();
Purpose | Disconnect a client.
Example of Usage |
    mySock.Disconnect();

SoundEffect
Prototype |
    SoundEffect( sound, bAllHear );
Purpose | To play the selected sound to this socket or all in range.
Example of Usage |
    pSock.SoundEffect( 0x01, false);

CustomTarget
Prototype |
    void CustomTarget( tNum, toSay );
Purpose | Very similar to PopUpTarget. It's a callback situation instead. tNum must be between 0 and 255. Says toSay, and shows a cursor. Reenters the script associated with the socket's player (ie player who gets the cursor). Enters function name based on the value of tNum. if tNum is 0, then the function would be onCallback0. Prototype of callback is:
    function onCallback0( tSock, targSerial )
Example of Usage |
    mySock.CustomTarget( 0, "Select your custom target:" );

PopUpTarget
Prototype |
    void PopUpTarget( tNum, toSay );
Purpose | Provides a call to an inbuilt popup target. tNum must be between 0 and 255 inclusive. Says toSay, and shows a cursor. Note that this allows access potentially to GM functions.
Example of Usage |
    mySock.PopUpTarget( 2, "Where do you wish to teleport to?" );

Prototype |
    void OpenURL( UrlString );
Purpose | Opens a specified URL in player's browser
Example of Usage |
    mySock.OpenURL( "http://www.uox3.org" );
