.sh description
the
.br iswcntrl ()
function is the wide-character equivalent of the
.br iscntrl (3)
function.
it tests whether
.i wc
is a wide character
belonging to the wide-character class "cntrl".
.pp
the wide-character class "cntrl" is disjoint from the wide-character class
"print" and therefore also disjoint from its subclasses "graph", "alpha",
"upper", "lower", "digit", "xdigit", "punct".
.pp
for an unsigned char
.ir c ,
.i iscntrl(c)
implies
.ir iswcntrl(btowc(c)) ,
but not vice versa.
.sh return value
the
.br iswcntrl ()
function returns nonzero if
.i wc
is a
wide character belonging to the wide-character class "cntrl".
