    LLD_BLOB.h      Generic Doubly Linked List for Binary Large OBjects.
                    Linked Lists for variable size data-items.

                    v1.00  94-08-11

                    - Based on the LLD module for fixed size data-items.
                    - Use the functions in the LLD module for operations
                      not specific to Blobs. You can use LLDnodePtr() to
                      obtain a pointer to the stored Blob.
                    - Note that From and To suffixes to function names are
                      implied in the Blob data related functions.
