10 .Nd determines multibyte conversion state
14 .Fn "int mbsinit" "const mbstate_t *ps"
16 .Fn "int mbsinit_l" "const mbstate_t *ps" "locale_t loc"
22 shall return a nonzero value if the multibyte converison state pointed to by
24 corresponds to an initial conversion state. The interpretation of
26 is locale dependent; the only guarantee is that an
28 object initialized to zero shall correspond to an initial conversion state. If
32 then a nonzero value shall be returned.
37 shall be the currently active locale; either the current thread locale as set by
39 if one has been specified, or otherwise the global locale controlled by
57 is a nonstandard extension originating in Darwin. See
