I've managed to get it to connect to the servers, figure out... (5 Replies)

fstrcolli
fstrcolli(3) Library Functions Manual fstrcolli(3)NAME
fstrcolli - fuzzy comparison of two strings using the current locale
SYNOPSIS
#include <fstrcmp.h>
#define FSTRCMP_IDENTICAL
#define FSTRCMP_THRESHOLD
#define FSTRCMP_ERROR
int fstrcolli(const char *string1, const char *string2);
DESCRIPTION
The strcolli() function compares the two strings sting1 and string2. The comparison is based on strings interpreted as appropriate for the
program's current locale for category LC_CTYPE.
RETURN VALUE
The fstrcolli function returns an int value between 0 and FSTRCMPI_IDENTICAL. A value of 0 means the strings are utterly un-alike. A
value of FSTRCMPI_IDENTICAL means the strings are identical. A value of more than FSTRCMPI_THRESHOLD (it lies between 0 and FSTRCMPI_IDEN-
TICAL) would be considered "similar" by most people.
A value of FSTRCMPI_ERROR (always negative) indicates a malloc(3) or mbstowcs(3) failure.
