+/*++
+/* NAME
+/* hex_code 3
+/* SUMMARY
+/* encode/decode data, hexadecimal style
+/* SYNOPSIS
+/* #include <hex_code.h>
+/*
+/* VSTRING *hex_encode(result, in, len)
+/* VSTRING *result;
+/* const char *in;
+/* ssize_t len;
+/*
+/* VSTRING *hex_decode(result, in, len)
+/* VSTRING *result;
+/* const char *in;
+/* ssize_t len;
+/* DESCRIPTION
+/* hex_encode() takes a block of len bytes and encodes it as one
+/* upper-case null-terminated string. The result value is
+/* the result argument.
+/*
+/* hex_decode() performs the opposite transformation on
+/* lower-case, upper-case or mixed-case input. The result
+/* value is the result argument. The result is null terminated,
+/* whether or not that makes sense.
+/* DIAGNOSTICS
+/* hex_decode() returns a null pointer when the input contains
+/* characters not in the hexadecimal alphabet.
