3 <<toascii>>, <<toascii_l>>---force integers to ASCII range
13 int toascii(int <[c]>);
16 int toascii_l(int <[c]>, locale_t <[locale]>);
19 <<toascii>> is a macro which coerces integers to the ASCII range (0--127) by zeroing any higher-order bits.
21 <<toascii_l>> is like <<toascii>> but performs the function based on the
22 locale specified by the locale object locale. If <[locale]> is
23 LC_GLOBAL_LOCALE or not a valid locale object, the behaviour is undefined.
25 You can use a compiled subroutine instead of the macro definition by
26 undefining this macro using `<<#undef toascii>>' or `<<#undef toascii_l>>'.
29 <<toascii>>, <<toascii_l>> return integers between 0 and 127.
32 <<toascii>> is X/Open, BSD and POSIX-1.2001, but marked obsolete in
34 <<toascii_l>> is a GNU extension.
36 No supporting OS subroutines are required.
