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

\w'atalk_aton('u "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.
