NAME
       uint16_unpack_big - read an unsigned big-endian 16-bit integer

SYNTAX
       #include <uint16.h>

       uint16 u;

       void uint16_unpack_big(const char s[2],uint16 *u);

DESCRIPTION
       uint16 is a 16-bit unsigned integer type, normally either unsigned int
       or unsigned long.

       uint16_unpack_big portably reads a uint16 as stored on a big-endian
       architecture (i.e. in network byte order) from s and writes it into u
       in the native byte order.
