fea681da | 40 | .SH NOTES |
d9bfdb9c | 41 | The behavior of |
60a90ecd MK |
42 | .BR towupper () |
43 | depends on the LC_CTYPE category of the | |
fea681da MK |
44 | current locale. |
45 | .PP | |
46 | This function is not very appropriate for dealing with Unicode characters, | |
47 | because Unicode knows about three cases: upper, lower and title case. | |
