DESCRIPTION
These routines examine and operate on Unicode characters, in
particular a subset of their properties as defined in the
Unicode standard. Unicode defines some characters as alpha-
betic and specifies three cases: upper, lower, and title.
Analogously to ctype(2) for ASCII, these routines test types
and modify cases for Unicode characters. The names are
self-explanatory.
The case-conversion routines return the character unchanged
if it has no case.
