It is my recollection that towupper and towlower are macros defined in wctype.h which should be part of glib-2.0 and later. the pertinent routine for the actual conversion should be towctrans(). You might want to take a look at the Tru64 docs. If you do not have them handy then use the docs mounted off of my webpage: http://www.iisc.com/dunix/ARH9YATE/CHDVLPSF.HTM Hope this helps Charlie -----Original Message----- From: Mark Abene [mailto:phiber@radicalmedia.com] Sent: Wednesday, August 30, 2000 7:49 AM To: freebsd-alpha@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: wide chars? towlower, etc.? I'm sorry this isn't an alpha-specific question, but I was wondering if anyone knows of a library (or something in ports) that provides "wide" character support that plays nicely with FreeBSD? I speak of the "towlower", "towupper", etc. functions.
