13	Please remember that if you create the nroff version in one of the
14	debian/rules file targets (such as build), you will need to include
15	docbook-to-man in your Build-Depends control field.

69    <para>Converts a bcd string into a value for a data field as it stored
70		  in the database file. The string may only contain the charcters
71			`+', `-', `0-9', and `.'. You should use this function
72			instead of accessing the record data directly.</para>
73		<para><option>data</option> points to the start of the data field in the
74		  record. It must be calculated by summing up all field length before
75			the field to operate on and add it to the base pointer of the
76			record.</para>
