58NAME is name for process. It is modified if necessary to make it unique.
59BUFFER is the buffer (or `buffer-name') to associate with the process.
60 Process output goes at end of that buffer, unless you specify
61 an output stream or filter function to handle the output.
62 BUFFER may be also nil, meaning that this process is not associated
63 with any buffer
64Third arg is name of the host to connect to, or its IP address.
65Fourth arg SERVICE is name of the service desired, or an integer
66specifying a port number to connect to."
