[erlang-questions] fd and controlling process

[Salikhov Dinislam]

IIUC, {fd, integer() >= 0} allows to use the socket received from 
socket() C function (or somehow else, but I can't propose another way).

If we managed to get the port (though I still don't know the way), the 
controlling process can be obtained as following:
{_, Pid} = erlang:port_info(Port, connected).
