DESCRIPTION
The putshort() function puts short byte quantities into the byte stream
or arbitrary byte boundaries.
The putshort() function is one of a set of subroutines that form the
resolver, a set of functions that resolve domain names. Global informa‐
tion that is used by the resolver functions is kept in the _res data
structure. The /include/resolv.h file contains the _res structure defi‐
nition.
FILES
