# SYNOPSIS
#
#   TUKLIB_INTEGER
#
# DESCRIPTION
#
#   Checks for tuklib_integer.h:
#     - Endianness
#     - Does the compiler or the operating system provide byte swapping macros
#     - Does the hardware support fast unaligned access to 16-bit, 32-bit,
#       and 64-bit integers
#
# COPYING

#   You can do whatever you want with this file.
