Hello all,

	I have an interesting problem concerning endian conversion.  I'm helping 
to port some software over from an O2 to linux.  The software that 
transmits messages, I have no control over and it can't be modified.  There 
are several different formats to the messages being transmitted.  Does 
anyone know of a solution already on the internet somewhere or have any 
suggestions on how I might approach this problem so I can still read the 
messages, even though I'm on a little endian machine?  Thanks.
