   \brief Vector library - portability (lower level functions)

   Lower level functions for reading/writing/manipulating vectors.

   This code is a quick hack to allow the writing of portable
   binary data files.
   The approach is to take known values and compare them against
   the current machine's internal representation.   A cross reference
   table is then built, and then all file reads and writes must go
   through these routines to correct the numbers if need be.

   As long as the byte switching is symetrical, the conversion routines
   will work both directions.
   
   The integer test patterns are quite simple, and their choice was
   arbitrary, but the float and double valued were more critical.

   I did not have a specification for IEEE to go by, so it is possible
   that I have missed something.  My criteria were:

   First, true IEEE numbers had to be chosen to avoid getting an FPE.
   Second, every byte in the test pattern had to be unique.   And
   finally, the number had to not be sensitive to rounding by the 
   specific hardware implementation.
   
   By experimentation it was found that the number  1.3333  met
   all these criteria for both floats and doubles

   See the discourse at the end of this file for more information
   
   The 3.0 dig, and dig_plus files are inherently non-portable.  This 
   can be seen in moving files between a SUN 386i and other SUN machines.
   The recommended way to transport files was always to convert to ASCII
   (b.a.vect) and copy the ASCII files:  dig_ascii and dig_att to the 
   destination machine.

   The problem lies in the way that different architectures internally
   represent data.   If a number is internally store as  0x01020304 on
   a 680x0 family machine, the same number will be stored as
   0x04030201 on an 80386 class machine.

   The CERL port of GRASS to the Compaq 386 already has code to deal
   with this incompatibility.  This code converts all files that are written
   out to conform to the 680x0 standard.  These binary files can then be 
   shared between machines without conversion.
   This code is designed to work with the majority of computers in use
   today that fit the following requirements:
   byte     ==  8 bits
   int      ==  4 bytes
   long     ==  4 bytes
   double   ==  IEEE standard 64 bit
   float    ==  IEEE standard 32 bit
   
   bytes can be swapped around in any reasonable way, but bits within each
   byte must be maintained in normal high to low ordering:  76543210
   is this a problem?

   If this ability is desired on a SUN 386i, for example, you simply
   define the compiler flag  CERL_PORTABLE in the src/CMD/makehead  file
   and recompile all of the mapdev programs.
   needs update, makehead/mapdev no longer exist

   Binary DLG files are NOT supported by this code, and will continue to
   be non-portable between different architectures.
   applies to the files coor/topo/cidx, needs testing
