NAME
wcscasecmp - compare two wide-character strings, ignoring case
SYNOPSIS
#include <wchar.h>
int wcscasecmp(const wchar_t *s1, const wchar_t *s2);
DESCRIPTION
The wcscasecmp function is the wide-character equivalent of the strcasecmp function. It compares the wide-character string pointed to by s1
and the wide-character string pointed to by s2, ignoring case differences (towupper, towlower).
RETURN VALUE
The wcscasecmp function returns zero if the wide-character strings at s1 and s2 are equal except for case distinctions. It returns a posi-
tive integer if s1 is greater than s2, ignoring case. It returns a negative integer if s1 is smaller than s2, ignoring case.
CONFORMING TO
This function is a GNU extension.

NOTES
The behaviour of wcscasecmp depends on the LC_CTYPE category of the current locale.
