47 | .Sh DESCRIPTION | |
48 | The | |
49 | .Fn toupper | |
50 | function converts a lower-case letter to the corresponding | |
51 | upper-case letter. | |
52 | The argument must be representable as an | |
53 | .Vt "unsigned char" | |
54 | or the value of | |
55 | .Dv EOF . | |
56 | .Sh RETURN VALUES | |
57 | If the argument is a lower-case letter, the | |
58 | .Fn toupper | |
59 | function returns the corresponding upper-case letter if there is | |
60 | one; otherwise the argument is returned unchanged. | |
61 | .Sh COMPATIBILITY | |
62 | The | |
63 | .Bx 4.4 | |
64 | extension of accepting arguments outside of the range of the | |
65 | .Vt "unsigned char" | |
66 | type in locales with large character sets is considered obsolete | |
67 | and may not be supported in future releases. | |
68 | The | |
69 | .Fn towupper | |
70 | function should be used instead. | |
