Thanks to all the people who took time to answer my query about the definition of little endian vs. big endian. To date, I have received about 6 MB of mail on the subject, and on the matter of why one is normal and the other perverse, including some rather long excerpts from "Gulliver's Travels" You can stop now, I am suitably enlightened.
