  I need an algorithm (in C) to determine the byte-order (LSB or MSB) of
  any computer with any word size.  I have one example but it depends on
  a word size of 4 bytes and does not work properly on the Cray.  Please
  send suggestions via Email to cristy@dupont.com.  Thanks muchly in 
  advance.
