NAME

       a64l(), l64a() - convert between long integer and base-64 ASCII string

SYNOPSIS

   Obsolescent Interface
DESCRIPTION

       These  functions  are used to maintain numbers stored in base-64 ASCII characters.  This is a notation by which long integers can be repre-
       sented by up to six characters; each character represents a "digit" in a radix-64 notation.

       The characters used to represent "digits" are for 0, for 1, through for 2-11, through for 12-37, and through for 38-63.

       The leftmost character is the least significant digit.  For example,
		      a0 = (38 x 64^0) + (2 x 64^1) = 166

       takes a pointer to a null-terminated base-64 representation and returns a corresponding value.  If the string pointed to by s contains more
       than six characters, uses the first six.

       takes  a  argument  and	returns  a pointer to the corresponding base-64 representation.  If the argument is 0, returns a pointer to a null
       string.

   Obsolescent Interface
       converts between long integer and base-64 ASCII string.

WARNINGS

       The value returned by is a pointer into a buffer, the contents of which are overwritten subsequent calls by the same thread.

       is an obsolescent interface supported only for compatibility with existing DCE applications. New multithreaded applications should use

SEE ALSO

       thread_safety(5).
