Converting byte order?

Does anyone know, if there is a function in DEC UNIX to convert
byte order of binary data?

I ran into a problem with an unformatted datafile, that originates from an
old HP computer. The byte order in the data (float64 or double precision)
is big endian. How can I convert it to little-endian in DEC? I mean, is
there a function to do so or do I have to write one?
