  The @code{c-strcase} module contains case-insensitive string comparison
  functions operating on single-byte character strings, like the functions in
  @code{<strings.h>}, that operate as if the locale encoding was ASCII.
  (The "C" locale on many systems has the locale encoding "ASCII".)
  
  The functions are:
  @smallexample
  extern int c_strcasecmp (const char *s1, const char *s2);
  extern int c_strncasecmp (const char *s1, const char *s2, size_t n);
  @end smallexample
  
  For case conversion here, only ASCII characters are considered to be
  upper case or lower case.
  
  Note: The functions @code{strcasecmp}, @code{strncasecmp} from
  @code{<strings.h>} support only unibyte locales; for multibyte locales,
  you need the functions @code{mbscasecmp}, @code{mbsncasecmp},
  @code{mbspcasecmp}.
