<p>
The <span class="emphasis"><em>db</em></span> <span class="bold"><strong>is_byteswapped</strong></span> command returns 0 if the
underlying database files were created on an architecture of the same
byte order as the current one, and 1 if they were not (that is,
big-endian on a little-endian machine, or vice versa). This
information may be used to determine if application data needs to be
adjusted for this architecture or not.
</p>
<p>
In the case of error, a Tcl error is thrown.
