NAME
       atalk_aton - AppleTalk address parsing

SYNOPSIS
       #include <sys/types.h>
       #include <netatalk/at.h>

       atalk_aton( cp, ata )
       char *cp;
       struct at_addr *ata;

DESCRIPTION
       The  atalk_aton()  routine  converts  an ascii representation of an AppleTalk address to a format appropriate for system calls.	Acceptable
       ascii representations include both hex and base 10, in triples or doubles.  For instance, the address `0x1f6b.77' has  a  network  part	of
       `8043'  and  a node part of `119'.  This same address could be written `8043.119', `31.107.119', or `0x1f.6b.77'.  If the address is in hex
       and the first digit is one of `A-F', a leading `0x' is redundant.
