NAME
atalk_aton - AppleTalk address parsing
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <netatalk/at.h>
atalk_aton(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.
