   NAME
         xdr - library routines for external data representation

   DESCRIPTION
         XDR routines allow C programmers to describe arbitrary data
         structures in a machine-independent fashion.  Data for remote
         procedure calls (RPC) are transmitted using these routines.

         The following table lists XDR routines and the manual reference pages
         on which they are described:
