+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The
+.BR wcsncasecmp ()
+function is the wide-character equivalent of the
+.BR strncasecmp (3)
+function.
+It compares the wide-character string pointed to
+by
+.I s1
+and the wide-character string
+pointed to by
+.IR s2 ,
+but at most
+.I n
+wide characters from each string, ignoring case differences
+.RB ( towupper (3),
+.BR towlower (3)).
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+The
+.BR wcsncasecmp ()
+function returns zero
+if the wide-character strings at
+.I s1
+and
+.IR s2 ,
+truncated to at most length
+.IR n ,
+are equal except
+for case distinctions.
+It returns a positive integer if truncated
+.I s1
+is
+greater than truncated
+.IR s2 ,
+ignoring case.
+It returns a negative integer
+if truncated
+.I s1
+is smaller than truncated
+.IR s2 ,
+ignoring case.
