SWAPBYTE - Functions to SWAP the BYTE order of binary data 

swap_short_2		swap a short integer
swap_u_short_2		swap an unsigned short integer
swap_int_4		swap a 4 byte integer
swap_u_int_4		swap an unsigned integer
swap_long_4		swap a long integer
swap_u_long_4		swap an unsigned long integer
swap_float_4		swap a float
swap_double_8		swap a double

Function Prototypes:
void swap_short_2(short *tni2);
void swap_u_short_2(unsigned short *tni2);
void swap_int_4(int *tni4);
void swap_u_int_4(unsigned int *tni4);
void swap_long_4(long *tni4);
void swap_u_long_4(unsigned long *tni4);
void swap_float_4(float *tnf4);
void swap_double_8(double *tndd8);

Notes:
These routines are necessary for reversing the byte order of binary data
for transportation between big-endian and little-endian machines. Examples
of big-endian machines are IBM RS6000, SUN, NeXT. Examples of little
endian machines are PC's and DEC.

These routines have been tested with PC data and run on PC's running
several PC versions of UNIX, but have not been tested on DEC.

Also, the number appended to the name of the routine refers to the
number of bytes that the item is assumed to be.
