Ascertains whether a given wide character is graphic

#include <wctype.h>
int iswgraph ( wint_t wc  );

The iswgraph( ) function is the wide-character version of the isgraph( ) character classification function. It tests whether its character argument is a graphic character; that is, whether the value represents a printable character that is not a whitespace character. In other words, iswgraph(wc) is true if and only if iswprint(wc) is true and iswspace(wc) is false.

The function call iswgraph(wc) can yield a different value than the corresponding byte-character function call isgraph(wctob(wc)) if wc is both a printing character and a whitespace character in the execution character set. In other words, isgraph(wctob(wc)) can be true while iswgraph(wc) is false, if both iswprint(wc) and iswspace(wc) are true. Or, to put it yet another way, while the space character (' ') is the only printable character for which isgraph( ) returns false, iswgraph( ) may return false for other printable, whitespace characters in addition to L' '.
