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
