NAME swab - swap bytes SYNOPSIS #include <stdlib.h> void swab(char *from, char *to, int nbytes); DESCRIPTION swab copies nbytes bytes pointed to by from to the array pointed to by to, exchanging adjacent even and odd bytes. Nbytes should be even and non-negative. If nbytes is odd and positive swab uses nbytes-1 instead. If nbytes is negative, swab does nothing.
