| .SH DESCRIPTION |
| The |
| .BR wcscmp () |
| function is the wide-character equivalent |
| of the |
| .BR strcmp (3) |

| It compares the wide-character string pointed to by \fIs1\fP and the |
| wide-character string pointed to by \fIs2\fP. |
| .SH "RETURN VALUE" |
| The |
| .BR wcscmp () |
| function returns zero if the wide-character strings at |
| \fIs1\fP and \fIs2\fP are equal. |
| It returns an integer greater than zero if |
| at the first differing position \fIi\fP, the corresponding wide-character |
| \fIs1[i]\fP is greater than \fIs2[i]\fP. |
| It returns an integer less than zero if |
| at the first differing position \fIi\fP, the corresponding wide-character |
| \fIs1[i]\fP is less than \fIs2[i]\fP. |
