.SH NAME
libw \- wide character library

.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
.LP
Historically, functions in this library provided wide character translations.
This functionality now resides in \fBlibc\fR(3LIB).
.sp
.LP
This library is maintained to provide backward compatibility for both runtime
and compilation environments. The shared object is implemented as a filter on
\fBlibc.so.1\fR. New application development need not specify \fB-lw\fR.
.SH INTERFACES
.sp
.LP
The shared object \fBlibw.so.1\fR provides the public interfaces defined below.
See \fBIntro\fR(3) for additional information on shared object interfaces.
