The
towlower()
function is the wide-character equivalent of the
tolower(3)
function.
If wc is a wide character, it is converted to
lowercase.
Characters which do not have case are returned unchanged.
If wc is WEOF, WEOF is returned.
RETURN VALUE
The
towlower()
function returns the lowercase equivalent of wc,
or WEOF if wc is WEOF.
CONFORMING TO
C99.
NOTES
The behavior of
towlower()
depends on the
LC_CTYPE
category of the
current locale.
This function is not very appropriate for dealing with Unicode characters,
because Unicode knows about three cases: upper, lower and title case.
