[insert C newbie disclaimer]

SunOS somemachne.somewhere 5.6 Generic_105181-20 sun4u sparc 
SUNW,Ultra-Enterprise

has it... but looking in my copy of the c programming language strcmp is
like 3 lines of code, you could just modify the s[i]==t[i] test to take
account of the ascii 65 to ascii 97 gap?

s[i]==t[i] || s[i]-32==t[i] || s[i]+32==t[i]

would be a (very broken) example?

I don't see it here so I assume its not ANSI...

have fun,
