 Hello,
 
 The function required is strcasecmp(3), which per POSIX is supposed
 to be found in strings.h, rather than string.h, which means there's
 no standard equivalent C++ library I'm aware of for it. =46rom looking
 at NetBSD/DragonFly BSD/FreeBSD/OpenBSD/GNU libc, I saw none that
 would expose that function via string.h without an additional macro
 being defined, since it's a legacy aspect of string.h, and more
 "correct" to be accessed through strings.h.
 
 (In retrospect, I should've made a note of this in my last email, as
 I anticipated there'd be a question, but forgot to explain this. My
 apologies.)
 
 Regards,
 
 Dave
