44.In ctype.h
45.Ft int
46.Fn iscntrl "int c"
47.Ft int
48.Fn iscntrl_l "int c" "locale_t loc"
49.Sh DESCRIPTION
50The
51.Fn iscntrl
52function tests for any control character.
53The value of the argument must be representable as an
54.Vt "unsigned char"
55or the value of

69.El
70.Pp
71The
72.Fn iscntrl_l
73function takes an explicit locale argument, whereas the
74.Fn iscntrl
75function uses the current global or per-thread locale.
76.Sh RETURN VALUES
77The
78.Fn iscntrl
79function returns zero if the character tests false and
80returns non-zero if the character tests true.
81.Sh COMPATIBILITY
82The
83.Bx 4.4
84extension of accepting arguments outside of the range of the
85.Vt "unsigned char"
86type in locales with large character sets is considered obsolete
87and may not be supported in future releases.
88The
89.Fn iswcntrl
90function should be used instead.
