Following that reasoning, the C standard library would _never_ be able to add another function (or macro, or struct, or...).

- coldpie 4y agoWithin reason, yeah. Like if they chose to add a new "island" function and my geographics software broke, that's clearly the spec's fault, not mine, even though technically I'm violating spec. I'd even argue any "is.*" function is probably too late to add to the spec at this point in time.

I'd like to see isualpha() isudigit() isupunct() isuspace() isugraph() etc. plus isucombining(). They'd supplement iswxxx() but (a) taking a `signed unicode int` (for C2x defined as at least 32 bits wide) and (b) being locale-independent.
