+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The
+.BR towupper ()
+function is the wide-character equivalent of the
+.BR toupper (3)
+function.
+If
+.I wc
+is a lowercase wide character,
+and there exists an uppercase equivalent in the current locale,
+it returns the uppercase equivalent of
+.IR wc .
+In all other cases,
+.I wc
+is returned unchanged.
+.P
+The
+.BR towupper_l ()
+function performs the same task,
+but performs the conversion based on the character type information in
+the locale specified by
+.IR locale .
+The behavior of
+.BR towupper_l ()
+is undefined if
+.I locale
+is the special locale object
+.B LC_GLOBAL_LOCALE
+(see
+.BR duplocale (3))
+or is not a valid locale object handle.
+.P
+The argument
+.I wc
+must be representable as a
+.I wchar_t
+and be a valid character in the locale or be the value
+.BR WEOF .
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+If
+.I wc
+was convertible to uppercase,
+.BR towupper ()
+returns its uppercase equivalent;
+otherwise it returns
+.IR wc .

+.SH NOTES
+The behavior of these functions depends on the
+.B LC_CTYPE
+category of the locale.
+.P
+These functions are not very appropriate for dealing with Unicode characters,
+because Unicode knows about three cases: upper, lower, and title case.
