NAME
fwcscmpi - fuzzy comparison of two wide-character strings SYNOPSIS
#include <fstrcmp.h> #define FSTRCMPI_IDENTICAL #define FSTRCMPI_THRESHOLD #define FSTRCMPI_ERROR int fwcscmpi(const wchar_t *string1, const wchar_t *string2); DESCRIPTION
The fwcscmpi() function compares the two wide-character strings, string1 and string2. RETURN VALUE
The fwcscmpi function returns an int value between 0 and FSTRCMPI_IDENTICAL. A value of 0 means the two wide-character strings are utterly un-alike. A value of FSTRCMPI_IDENTICAL means the two wide-character strings are identical. A value of more than FSTRCMPI_THRESHOLD (it lies between 0 and FSTRCMPI_IDENTICAL) would be considered "similar" by most people. A value of FSTRCMPI_ERROR (always negative) indicates a malloc(3) failure. SEE ALSO

NAME
fwcscmp - fuzzy comparison of two wide-character strings SYNOPSIS
#include <fstrcmp.h> #define FSTRCMP_IDENTICAL #define FSTRCMP_THRESHOLD #define FSTRCMP_ERROR double fwcscmp(const wchar_t *string1, const wchar_t *string2); DESCRIPTION
The fwcscmp() function compares the two wide-character strings, string1 and string2. RETURN VALUE
The fwcscmp function returns a floating point value between 0.0 and FSTRCMP_IDENTICAL. A value of 0.0 means the two wide-character strings are utterly un-alike. A value of FSTRCMP_IDENTICAL means the two wide-character strings are identical. A value of more than FSTR- CMP_THRESHOLD (it lies between 0.0 and FSTRCMP_IDENTICAL) would be considered "similar" by most people.
