Hi folks,


        I was wondering if you have heard of the lack of
[fcg]cvt and [fcg]convert in FreeBSD libraries and include files?
I have found these functions on SunOS, Solaris, and HP-UX.  I figured
since they are on SunOS (and I believ they are POSIX) they would
be in FreeBSD.  I have searched the libraries, the include files, tons
of brains of friends and other FreeBSD users to find these functions
or their equivalents.
        Could you perhaps point me in the right direction or let me
know if they or some equivlanets simply dont exist?
