.SH DESCRIPTION
.LP
These functions test whether \fIwc\fR is a wide-character code representing a
character of a particular class defined in the \fBLC_CTYPE\fR category of the
current locale or the locale specified by \fIloc\fR.
.LP
The functions \fBiswalpha_l()\fR, \fBiswideogram_l()\fR, \fBiswnumber_l()\fR,
\fBiswphonogram_l()\fR, \fBiswspecial_l()\fR, \fBiswalnum_l()\fR,
\fBiswascii_l()\fR, \fBiswblank_l()\fR, \fBiswcntrl_l()\fR, \fBiswdigit_l()\fR,
\fBiswgraph_l()\fR, \fBiswlower_l()\fR, \fBiswprint_l()\fR, \fBiswpunct_l()\fR,
\fBiswspace_l()\fR, \fBiswupper_l()\fR, all behave identically to their
counterparts without the '\fB_l\fR' suffix, but instead of operating on the
current locale, they operate on the locale specified by \fIloc\fR.
.LP
The functions, \fBiswideogram()\fR, \fBiswnumber()\fR, \fBiswphonogram()\fR,
\fBiswspecial()\fR, and \fBiswhexnumber()\fR, are respectively identical to
\fBisideogram()\fR, \fBisnumber()\fR, \fBisphonogram()\fR, \fBisspecial()\fR,
\fBiswxdigit()\fR respectively.  They are provided for compatibility purposes.
.LP
In all cases, \fIwc\fR is a \fBwint_t\fR, the value of which must be a
wide-character code corresponding to a valid character in the current locale or
must equal the value of the macro \fBWEOF\fR. If the argument has any other
values, the behavior is undefined.
