DESCRIPTION
     _L_3_t_o_l converts a list of _n three-byte integers packed into a
     character  string  pointed  to  by  _c_p  into  a list of long
     integers pointed to by _l_p.

     _L_t_o_l_3 performs the reverse  conversion  from  long  integers
     (_l_p) to three-byte integers (_c_p).

     These functions are useful for file-system maintenance where
     the block numbers are three bytes long.
