That's "Endian", not "Indian".

Thank you Greg, but I promise you, Your Honor, I'm not guilty, for the life of me ;-)

In this case, I did know the concept and its correct spelling but:
- being absent-minded by nature
- thinking in english (I have  almost wrote "inglish")
- but unconsciously verifying spelling in french (my native language) while writing
- and being guilty of not re-reading myself before posting

You have there a perfect recipe for a disaster ;-)
