+.P
+.BI "uint32_t htonl(uint32_t " hostlong );
+.BI "uint16_t htons(uint16_t " hostshort );

+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The
+.BR htonl ()
+function converts the unsigned integer
+.I hostlong
+from host byte order to network byte order.
+.P
+The
+.BR htons ()
+function converts the unsigned short integer
+.I hostshort
+from host byte order to network byte order.
+.P
+The
+.BR ntohl ()
+function converts the unsigned integer
+.I netlong
+from network byte order to host byte order.
+.P
+The
+.BR ntohs ()
+function converts the unsigned short integer
+.I netshort
+from network byte order to host byte order.
+.P
+On the i386 the host byte order is Least Significant Byte first,
+whereas the network byte order, as used on the Internet, is Most
+Significant Byte first.
