Remember also that when you encode/decode words and dwords in a way that is intended to be portable between architectures, you have to handle endianness. For example you can decide to store (d)words in network byte order (big endian - most significant byte first, as used in m68k and Palm), or in little endian (least significant byte first, as used in x86, ...)
