hdf: little_endian, big_endian

I think that all the problem I have with
r.in.hdf and my hdf files is that the 2 bytes
are reversed. Does anybody know
of a Linux utility/program for swaping?

Thanks

Hi Agustin,

Does anybody know
of a Linux utility/program for swaping?

dd if=infile of=outfile conv=swab
should work if really every two bytes have to be reversed. If there
are some structs in the file including data other than 2 bytes length
it won't work I guess...

Hope this helps,

Stephan
