If the argument of tolower() represents an upper-case letter, and there exists a corresponding lower-case letter (as defined by character type information in the locale category LC_CTYPE), the result is the --- 12,22 ---- int tolower_l(int c, locale_t loc); DESCRIPTION !

*** 25,34 **** --- 25,39 ---- The function tolower_l() behaves identically to tolower(), except instead of operating in the current locale, it operates in the locale specified by loc. + A macro form, _tolower() exists. It is defined for standards + conformance, particularly with legacy standards. It was deprecated in + POSIX 2008 (Issue 7), and its use is discouraged. The macro, on this + system, is just an alias for tolower(). + RETURN VALUES On successful completion, tolower() returns the lower-case letter corresponding to the argument passed. Otherwise, it returns the argument unchanged.
