connectTo is in the Socket library, and it is implemented in terms of
the lower level primitives from SocketPrim.  It takes a hostname and
port, and returns a normal Haskell Handle, on which you can use hGetLine
and hPutStr as you would with a file or pipe.  This is easiest way to
open up a connection to a server and communicate with it.

I don't recommend using readSocket.  Using the normal Haskell I/O
functions with a socket Handle should be enough.
