strcoll 

Compares two strings, interpreting them as appropriate for the current
locale.  This function is generally used in conjunction with Native
Language Support (NLS).

Syntax 

     #include <string.h>
     int strcoll(const char *s1, const char *s2);

Parameters 

s1            A pointer to the first string.

s2            A pointer to the second string.

Return Values 

> 0           The s1 parameter is greater than s2.

= 0           The s1 parameter is equal to s2.

< 0           The s1 parameter is less than s2.

Description 

The strcoll function returns an integer greater than, equal to, or less
than zero, indicating that the string pointed to by s1 is greater than,
equal to, or less than the string pointed to by s2.  Both strings are
interpreted as appropriate to the LC_COLLATE category of the current
locale.
