DESCRIPTION

These functions marshal a 2– to 8–byte integer to or from little– or big–endian formats. The put functions return the pointer to the first byte after the integer. The get functions return the value, and if r is not nil they set *r to point at the first byte after the integer.

BUGS

GBIT* and PBIT* (from fcall(2)) provide similar functionality for little–endian integers. The nhget* and nhput* functions from ip(2) provide similar functionality for big–endian integers.
