     27 DESCRIPTION
     28 </b><br>
     29 <P>
     30 This function, which exists only in the 16-bit library, converts a UTF-16
     31 string to the correct order for the current host, taking account of any byte
     32 order marks (BOMs) within the string. Its arguments are:
     33 <pre>
     34   <i>output</i>           pointer to output buffer, may be the same as <i>input</i>
     35   <i>input</i>            pointer to input buffer
     36   <i>length</i>           number of 16-bit units in the input, or negative for
     37                      a zero-terminated string
     38   <i>host_byte_order</i>  a NULL value or a non-zero value pointed to means
     39                      start in host byte order
     40   <i>keep_boms</i>        if non-zero, BOMs are copied to the output string
     41 </pre>
     42 The result of the function is the number of 16-bit units placed into the output
     43 buffer, including the zero terminator if the string was zero-terminated.
     44 </P>
     45 <P>
     46 If <i>host_byte_order</i> is not NULL, it is set to indicate the byte order that
     47 is current at the end of the string.
