.SH NAME
iswcntrl \- test for control wide character
.SH SYNOPSIS
function is the wide-character equivalent of the
.BR iscntrl (3)
function.
-It tests whether \fIwc\fP is a wide character
+It tests whether
+.I wc
+is a wide character
belonging to the wide-character class "cntrl".
.PP
The wide-character class "cntrl" is disjoint from the wide-character class
"print" and therefore also disjoint from its subclasses "graph", "alpha",
"upper", "lower", "digit", "xdigit", "punct".
.PP
-For an unsigned char \fIc\fP, \fIiscntrl(c)\fP
-implies \fIiswcntrl(btowc(c))\fP,
+For an unsigned char
+.IR c ,
+.I iscntrl(c)
+implies
+.IR iswcntrl(btowc(c)) ,
but not vice versa.
-.SH "RETURN VALUE"
+.SH RETURN VALUE
The
.BR iswcntrl ()
-function returns nonzero if \fIwc\fP is a
+function returns nonzero if
+.I wc
+is a
wide character belonging to the wide-character class "cntrl".
-Otherwise it returns zero.
-.SH "CONFORMING TO"
+Otherwise, it returns zero.
+.SH ATTRIBUTES
+.SS Multithreading (see pthreads(7))
+The
+.BR iswcntrl ()
+function is thread-safe with exceptions.
+It can be safely used in multithreaded applications, as long as
+.BR setlocale (3)
+is not called to change the locale during its execution.
+.SH CONFORMING TO
