Does a binary copy from a LongInt variable to a String, setting its length to 8 bytes
result = MKLongInt[$]( number )
Does a binary copy from a LongInt variable to a string, setting its length to 8 bytes. The resulting string can be read back to a longint by Cvlonging
This function is useful to write numeric values to buffers without using a Type definition.

a = 4534
b = MKLongInt(a)
Print a, CVLongInt(b)
Sleep
a = 4534
b = MKLongInt(a)
Print a, CVLongInt(b)
Sleep
