You can replace it with this macro
#define FourByte(a,b,c,d) ((UInt32)((a) << 24 + (b) << 16 + (c) << 8 +
(d)))
then rather than saying 'appl', you'd say FourByte('a','a','p','l').
CodeWarrior always treats the multi-byte char constants as if they were in
most-significant-byte-first order due to its Macintosh roots.
