+ZMQ_FD: Retrieve file descriptor associated with the socket
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+The 'ZMQ_FD' option shall retrieve file descriptor associated with the 0MQ
+socket. The descriptor can be used to integrate 0MQ socket into an existing
+event loop. It should never be used for anything else than polling -- such as
+reading or writing. The descriptor signals edge-triggered IN event when
+something has happened within the 0MQ socket. It does not necessarily mean that
+the messages can be read or written. Check ZMQ_EVENTS option to find out whether
+the 0MQ socket is readable or writeable.

+be written to the socket ZMQ_POLLOUT flag is set.
