NAME

       ustrnicmp  -  Compares  up  to  n letters of two strings ignoring case.
       Allegro game programming library.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <allegro.h>

       int ustrnicmp(const char *s1, const char *s2, int n);

DESCRIPTION

       This function compares up to `n' characters of `s1' and `s2',  ignoring
       case. Example:

          if (ustrnicmp(prefix, long_string, ustrlen(prefix)) == 0) {
             /* long_string starts with prefix (ignoring case) */
          }

RETURN VALUE

       Returns  zero if the strings are equal, a positive number if `s1' comes
       after `s2' in the ASCII collating sequence, else a negative number.
