Standard C library (libc, -lc)

#include <wctype.h>
int iswprint(wint_t wc);

The iswprint() function is the wide-character equivalent of the isprint(3) function. It tests whether wc is a wide character belonging to the wide-character class "print".

The wide-character class "print" is disjoint from the wide-character class "cntrl".

The wide-character class "print" contains the wide-character class "graph".

The iswprint() function returns nonzero if wc is a wide character belonging to the wide-character class "print". Otherwise, it returns zero.

For an explanation of the terms used in this section, see attributes(7).
