low_str_strnicmp

Compare characters of two strings without regard to case. 

l_int			low_str_strnicmp  ( 
		cl_text 		s1,
		cl_text 		s2,
		l_size_t 	max 
);


Return Value

The return value indicates the relationship between the substrings as follows.

Return Value Description 
   < 0 @s1 substring less than @s2 substring 
   0 @s1 substring identical to @s2 substring 
   > 0 @s1 substring greater than @s2 substring 

Parameters

s1, s2

Null-terminated strings to compare

max

Number of characters to compare

Remarks

The low_str_strnicmp function lexicographically compares, at most, the first @max characters of @s1 and @s2. 
The comparison is performed without regard to case; low_str_strnicmp is a case-insensitive version of 
low_str_strncmp. The comparison ends if a terminating null character is reached in either string before @max 
characters are compared. If the strings are equal when a terminating null character  is reached in either string 
before count characters are compared, the shorter string is lesser.

Two strings containing characters located between 'Z' and 'a' in the ASCII table ('[', '\', ']', '^', '_', and '`') 
compare differently, depending on their case. For example, the two strings "ABCDE" and "ABCD^" compare  one 
way if the comparison is lowercase ("abcde" > "abcd^")  and the other way ("ABCDE" < "ABCD^") if it is uppercase.
