_D_e_s_c_r_i_p_t_i_o_n:

     Converts a numeric value (p) representing an L-p metric to an
     enumerated index appropriate for Insightful's MUTILS C library,
     used by many functions in the FRACTAL package involving '.Call'
     calls.

_A_r_g_u_m_e_n_t_s:

  metric: an integer (p) representing an L-p Euclidean distance metric.
          Supported values are 1, 2 and 'Inf'.

_V_a_l_u_e:

     an integer representing the equivalent MUTILS enumerated type for
     the specifed metric.
