	I agree otoi() would be extremely handy sometimes......of course
	these things are trivial to write, but who wants the hassle?

	Speaking of this sort of thing, I have a "itoa()" program which 
	takes an integer and converts it to an ASCII string representing
	that number.  It will give you the number in any base, 2-36.

	I've used it numerous times, particularly when I'm trying to avoid
	stdio for some reason.  If there's enough interest, I'll be glad 
	to post it to the net....
