Synopsis:
    #include <mbstring.h>
    int _ismbclower( unsigned int ch );

Description:
    The _ismbclower function tests for a valid lowercase multibyte
    character.  Multibyte characters include both single-byte and
    double-byte characters.  For example, in code page 932, a lowercase
    double-byte character is one for which the following expression is true:


         0x8281 <= c <= 0x829A


Returns:
    The _ismbclower function returns a non-zero value when the argument is a
    member of this set of characters; otherwise, zero is returned.


Example:
    #include <stdio.h>
    #include <mbctype.h>
    #include <mbstring.h>

    unsigned int chars[] = {
        '1',
        'A',
        'a',
        0x8140, /* double-byte space */
        0x8143, /* double-byte , */
        0x8254, /* double-byte 5 */
        0x8260, /* double-byte A */
        0x8279, /* double-byte Z */
        0x8281, /* double-byte a */
        0x829A, /* double-byte z */
        0x989F, /* double-byte L2 character */
        0xA6
    };

    #define SIZE sizeof( chars ) / sizeof( unsigned int )

    void main()
      {
        int   i;

        _setmbcp( 932 );
        for( i = 0; i < SIZE; i++ ) {
          printf( "%#6.4x is %sa valid "
                "multibyte lowercase character\n",
                chars[i],
                ( _ismbclower( chars[i] ) ) ? "" : "not " );
        }
      }

    produces the following:

    0x0031 is not a valid multibyte lowercase character
    0x0041 is not a valid multibyte lowercase character
    0x0061 is a valid multibyte lowercase character
    0x8140 is not a valid multibyte lowercase character
    0x8143 is not a valid multibyte lowercase character
    0x8254 is not a valid multibyte lowercase character
    0x8260 is not a valid multibyte lowercase character
    0x8279 is not a valid multibyte lowercase character
    0x8281 is a valid multibyte lowercase character
    0x829a is a valid multibyte lowercase character
    0x989f is not a valid multibyte lowercase character
    0x00a6 is not a valid multibyte lowercase character
