NAME

       fwcscmp - fuzzy comparison of two wide-character strings

SYNOPSIS

       #include <fstrcmp.h>
       #define FSTRCMP_IDENTICAL
       #define FSTRCMP_THRESHOLD
       #define FSTRCMP_ERROR
       double fwcscmp(const wchar_t *string1, const wchar_t *string2);

DESCRIPTION

       The fwcscmp() function compares the two wide-character strings, string1
       and string2.

RETURN VALUE

       The fwcscmp function returns a floating point  value  between  0.0  and
       FSTRCMP_IDENTICAL.  A value of 0.0 means the two wide-character strings
       are utterly un-alike.  A value of FSTRCMP_IDENTICAL means the two wide-
       character    strings   are   identical.    A   value   of   more   than
       FSTRCMP_THRESHOLD (it lies between 0.0 and FSTRCMP_IDENTICAL) would  be
       considered "similar" by most people.

       A  value  of  FSTRCMP_ERROR  (always  negative)  indicates  a malloc(3)
       failure.
