Boost :

A refresh of the .zip file for the Endian library, based on comments
received so far, is available at
http://mysite.verizon.net/~beman/endian-0.2.zip

The docs are online at
http://mysite.verizon.net/~beman/endian-0.2/libs/endian/index.html

Changes include:

* Templates are exposed.

* The four outermost templates have been folded into a single endian
class template.

* The integer_cover_operators class template has been moved into a
separate header file, boost/integer_cover_operators.hpp. No docs yet,
but functionality is pretty obvious from the header.

* Provision has been made for native endianness. Not implemented yet.

* More explicit names have been given to the forty-four typedefs. A
careful explanation of the naming rationale has been added to the docs.

* The docs have been expanded.

* The example program has been rewritten and is much more realistic.

* I haven't looked at Scott McMurray's exact.hpp header yet, so that may
kick off yet more changes to come.
