FUNCTION

        <<swab>>---swap adjacent bytes

ANSI_SYNOPSIS

        #include <unistd.h>

        void swab(const void *<[in]>, void *<[out]>, ssize_t <[n]>);

TRAD_SYNOPSIS

        void swab(<[in]>, <[out]>, <[n]>

        void *<[in]>;

        void *<[out]>;

        ssize_t <[n]>;

DESCRIPTION

        This function copies <[n]> bytes from the memory region

        pointed to by <[in]> to the memory region pointed to by

        <[out]>, exchanging adjacent even and odd bytes.

PORTABILITY

<<swab>> requires no supporting OS subroutines.
