DESCRIPTION
-----------

Following functions are exported by nanomsg library:

Create an SP socket::
    linknanomsg:nn_socket[3]

Close an SP socket::
    linknanomsg:nn_close[3]

Set a socket option::
    linknanomsg:nn_setsockopt[3]

Retrieve a socket option::
    linknanomsg:nn_getsockopt[3]

Add a local endpoint to the socket::
    linknanomsg:nn_bind[3]

Add a remote endpoint to the socket::
    linknanomsg:nn_connect[3]

Remove an endpoint from the socket::
    linknanomsg:nn_shutdown[3]

Send a message::
    linknanomsg:nn_send[3]

Receive a message::
    linknanomsg:nn_recv[3]

Fine-grained alternative to nn_send::
    linknanomsg:nn_sendmsg[3]

Fine-grained alternative to nn_recv::
    linknanomsg:nn_recvmsg[3]

Allocate a message::
    linknanomsg:nn_allocmsg[3]

Deallocate a message::
    linknanomsg:nn_freemsg[3]

Manipulation of message control data::
    linknanomsg:nn_cmsg[3]

Retrieve the current errno::
    linknanomsg:nn_errno[3]

Convert an error number into human-readable string::
    linknanomsg:nn_strerror[3]

Query the names and values of nanomsg symbols::
    linknanomsg:nn_symbol[3]

Start a device::
    linknanomsg:nn_device[3]

Notify all sockets about process termination::
    linknanomsg:nn_term[3]

Environment variables that influence nanomsg work::
    linknanomsg:nn_env[3]
