.SH DESCRIPTION
The function binds socket
-.IR s to a particular transport. Actual semantics of the
+.IR s
+to a particular transport. Actual semantics of the
command depend on the underlying transport mechanism, however, in cases where
peers connect in an asymetric manner,
.IR zmq_bind
should be called first,
.IR zmq_connect
-afterwards. For actual formats of

-parameter for different types of transport have a look at
-.IR zmq(7) .
+parameter are defined by individual transports. For a list of supported
+transports have a look at
+.IR zmq(7)
+manual page.

Note that single socket can be bound (and connected) to
arbitrary number of peers using different transport mechanisms.
