There's nothing wrong with using htod if you can get it to work. However, the 
question is whether you can get it to work for what you're doing. And as I 
understand it, you're gonig to have to go over what it did after it did it, 
because it doesn't do a perfect job. But if you can get it to work, it's 
definitely desirable, since it'll save you a fair bit of work.

But unfortunately, htod Windows-only, and I haven't been converting much C 
code lately, I don't know it well enough to really help you get it working. It 
_is_ worth using though.
