+.SH NAME
+wctrans \- wide-character translation mapping
+.SH LIBRARY
+Standard C library
+.RI ( libc ", " \-lc )
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.nf
+.B #include <wctype.h>
+.PP
+.BI "wctrans_t wctrans(const char *" name );
+.fi
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The
+.I wctrans_t
+type represents a mapping
+which can map a wide character to
+another wide character.
+Its nature is implementation-dependent, but the special
+value
+.I (wctrans_t)\ 0
+denotes an invalid mapping.
+Nonzero
+.I wctrans_t
+values can be passed to the
+.BR towctrans (3)
+function to actually perform
+the wide-character mapping.
+.PP
+The
+.BR wctrans ()
+function returns a mapping, given by its name.
+The set of
+valid names depends on the
+.B LC_CTYPE
+category of the current locale, but the
+following names are valid in all locales.
+.PP
+.nf
+ "tolower" \- realizes the \fBtolower\fP(3) mapping
+ "toupper" \- realizes the \fBtoupper\fP(3) mapping
+.fi
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+The
+.BR wctrans ()
+function returns a mapping descriptor if the
+.I name
+is valid.
+Otherwise, it returns
+.IR "(wctrans_t)\ 0" .
+.SH ATTRIBUTES
+For an explanation of the terms used in this section, see
