I have found references to using Unix sockets with Skunkweb, however
as a Skunkweb newbie I did not know how to use them.  I looked in
the wiki, documentation and sw.conf files to find an example and
could not do so.  Hence the "newbie how-to" request.

Excellent!  I have only to do this one thing, and nothing else,
and Skunkweb will use Unix sockets for aecgi.  Thanks for making me
a bit less of a newbie - I have no experience with Unix sockets.
