As long as you use the same one on both the client and the server, you're
fine.

There are some standards, 80 for HTTP, 21 for FTP, and so on, but there's
no law that says you have to use them for that purpose.  As a standard rule
any sock > 1023 is used for a user-defined protocol or private transmission.


The problem with your code is that mySocket never gets assigned a value
because you forgot to hook into the onOpen event.  Add this line of code
after the onOpenMainWindow() procedure:

onOpen[MainWindow] = routine_id("onOpenMainWindow")

That should do the trick...
