>you should call it "swapping" then everybody would understand :-)

Yes :) I begin my programming when I was 6 years old (1986). My first platforms
was Iskra-1030/11 (clone of 8086) and BK-0010-01 (clone of PDP-11). Under second
platform (it was my personal computer) I spent a lot of time programming on
Assembler. SWAB procedure in PDP-11 is procedure to swap major and minor bytes
in word. For example:

MOV R1,#100
SWAB R1

And then word "swab" pass a deep roots into my mind :))
