       new NUM, TYPE, START, SOCKET, PATH
           With  no  arguments,  creates  a new Net::Hotline::Task object with all attributes set to undef. With
           three or four arguments (PATH is optional), creates a new Net::Hotline::Task object with task  number
           NUM, task type TYPE, start time START, user socket number SOCKET, and file path PATH.

       Net::Hotline::Task is a simple class for storing and retrieving task information,  You should never have
       to create your own Net::Hotline::Task objects when using Net::Hotline::Client.  Getting and (to a lesser
       extent) setting attributes is all that should be necessary.

       All the Net::Hotline::Task methods are simple attribute get/set routines.  If given an argument, they set
       an attribute.  In all cases, they return the current value of the attribute.

       error EXPR
           The error state of the task.  A true value means there was an error.

       error_text TEXT
           The error message text.  This only applies if error() returns a true value.

       finish TIME
           The  time (in platform-native time format, i.e. seconds since the epoch on a Unix system) that a task
           completed.

       num NUMBER
           The unique task number.  Task numbers increase sequentially.

       path PATH
           The path information associated with a  task  (if  any).   In  situations  where  two  paths  may  be
           associated  with  a  task  (a  "move file" task, for example), a reference to an array containing the
           paths will be returned.

       socket NUMBER
           The unique user socket number associated with a task (if any).

       start TIME
           The time (in platform-native time format) that a task was started.

       type TASK_TYPE
           The  HTLC_TASK_XXX  constant  specifying  the  type  of  task.   These  constants  are   defined   in
           Net::Hotline::Constants, and include:

               HTLC_TASK_KICK         Disconnect a user.
               HTLC_TASK_LOGIN        Log into server.
               HTLC_TASK_NEWS         Get the news.
               HTLC_TASK_NEWS_POST    Post to news.
               HTLC_TASK_FILE_DELETE  Delete a file.
               HTLC_TASK_FILE_INFO    Get file information.
               HTLC_TASK_FILE_LIST    Get a file list.
               HTLC_TASK_FILE_MKDIR   Create a new folder.
               HTLC_TASK_FILE_MOVE    Move a file.
               HTLC_TASK_SEND_MSG     Send a private message.
               HTLC_TASK_SET_INFO     Set file information.
               HTLC_TASK_USER_INFO    Get user information.
               HTLC_TASK_USER_LIST    Get the userlist.
