strxfrm - string transformation
#include <string.h>
size_t strxfrm(char *dest, const char *src, size_t n);
The strxfrm() function transforms the src string into a form such
that the result of strcmp(3) on two strings that have been
transformed with strxfrm() is the same as the result of strcoll(3) on
the two strings before their transformation. The first n bytes of
the transformed string are placed in dest. The transformation is
based on the program's current locale for category LC_COLLATE. (See
setlocale(3)).
The strxfrm() function returns the number of bytes required to store
the transformed string in dest excluding the terminating null byte
('\0'). If the value returned is n or more, the contents of dest are
indeterminate.
For an explanation of the terms used in this section, see
attributes(7).
