strcasecmp(const char *s1, const char *s2);
int
strncasecmp(const char *s1, const char *s2, size_t len);
DESCRIPTION
Strcasecmp
and
strncasecmp
compare the null-terminated strings
s1
and
s2
and return an integer greater than, equal to, or less than 0,
according as
s1
is lexicographically greater than, equal to, or less than

The comparison is done using unsigned characters, so that '\200'
is greater than '\0'.
