        convert between 3-byte integers and long integers

        SYNTAX

        void l3tol (lp, cp, n)
        long *lp;
        char *cp;
        int n;

        void ltol3 (cp, lp, n)
        char *cp;
        long *lp;
        int n;


        DESCRIPTION

        L3tol converts a list of n three-byte integers packed into a
        character string pointed to by cp into a list of long integers
        pointed to by lp.

        Ltol3 performs the reverse conversion from long integers (lp) to
        three-byte integers (cp).

        These functions are useful for file-system maintenance, where the
        block numbers are three bytes long.


        SEE ALSO

        fs(4).


        BUGS

        Because of possible differences in byte ordering, the numerical
        values of the long integers are machine-dependent.
