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

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