+don't close fd.
+it's used next by a few functions.
+this results in a fd leak, but
+makes the code work:
+in practise, your program
+will free all descriptors
+on exit
+
+what we need to do is figure out a proper
+system of storing descriptors,
+and freeing them when it's safe;
+see how this function is called
+and whatt calls those and you see what i mean
+
+who owns what is currently not consistent.
+needs rework.
+
+this will be fixed at a later date.
+justt leaving thtis in here for future me.
+
+with this uncommented, i always just get
+"Bad file descriptor" error:
