| 23 | These routines convert 16 and 32 bit quantities between network byte or- | |
| 24 | der and host byte order. On machines which have a byte order which is | |
| 25 | the same as the network order, routines are defined as null macros. | |
| 26 | ||
| 27 | These routines are most often used in conjunction with Internet addresses | |
| 28 | and ports as returned by gethostbyname(3) and getservent(3). | |

| 37 | On the VAX bytes are handled backwards from most everyone else in the | |
| 38 | world. This is not expected to be fixed in the near future. | |
