isascii isn't part of the C Standard. It is better to follow C, which says that the argument to all the is* functions should be an unsigned char or EOF (which is what getc() and friends return).
It says that only about the functions that the C Standard defines.
zic.c will define isascii (as a function-like macro) if it doesn't exist. Unfortunately, it defines it like this: #ifndef isascii #define isascii(x) 1 #endif which is pretty useless. This would be more useful: #define isascii(x) (!((x) & ~0x7f)) or possibly: #define isascii(x) ((unsigned char)(x) < 128) -- -=( Ian Abbott @ MEV Ltd.
