  23      -.sp
  24   29  .LP
  25   30  If \fIs\fR is not a null pointer, \fBmbtowc()\fR determines the number of the
  26   31  bytes that constitute the character pointed to by \fIs\fR. It then determines
  27   32  the wide-character code for the value of type \fBwchar_t\fR that corresponds to
  28   33  that character. (The value of the wide-character code corresponding to the null
  29   34  byte is 0.) If the character is valid and \fIpwc\fR is not a null pointer,
  30   35  \fBmbtowc()\fR stores the wide-character code in the object pointed to by
  31   36  \fIpwc\fR.
  32      -.sp
  33   37  .LP
  34   38  A call with \fIs\fR as a null pointer causes this function to return \fB0\fR.
  35   39  The behavior of this function is affected by the \fBLC_CTYPE\fR category of the
  36   40  current locale. At most \fIn\fR bytes of the array pointed to by \fIs\fR will
  37   41  be examined.
  38      -.sp
  39   42  .LP
  40   43  The function \fBmbtowc_l()\fR behaves identically to \fBmbtowc()\fR, except
  41   44  instead of using the current locale, it uses the locale as specified by
  42   45  \fIloc\fR.
  43   46  .SH RETURN VALUES

  45   47  .LP
  46      -If \fIs\fR is a null pointer, \fBmbtowc()\fR returns \fB0\fR. If \fIs\fR is not
  47      -a null pointer, \fBmbtowc()\fR returns \fB0\fR (if \fIs\fR points to the null
       48 +If \fIs\fR is a null pointer, these functions return \fB0\fR. If \fIs\fR is not
       49 +a null pointer, they return \fB0\fR (if \fIs\fR points to the null
  48   50  byte), the number of bytes that constitute the converted character (if the next
  49   51  \fIn\fR or fewer bytes form a valid character), or  \fB\(mi1\fR and may set
  50   52  \fBerrno\fR to indicate the error (if they do not form a valid character).
  51      -.sp
  52   53  .LP
  53   54  In no case will the value returned be greater than \fIn\fR or the value of the
  54   55  \fBMB_CUR_MAX\fR macro.
