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

Description:
    The _mbcjistojms converts a JIS character set code to a shift-JIS
    character set code.  If the argument is out of range, _mbcjistojms
    returns 0.  Valid JIS double-byte characters are those in which the
    first and second byte fall in the range 0x21 through 0x7E.  This is
    summarized in the following diagram.


            [ 1st byte ]    [ 2nd byte ]
             0x21-0x7E       0x21-0x7E

    Note:  The JIS character set code is a double-byte character set defined
    by JIS, the Japan Industrial Standard Institutes.  Shift-JIS is another
    double-byte character set.  It is defined by Microsoft for personal
    computers and is based on the JIS code.  The first byte and the second
    byte of JIS codes can have values less than 0x80.  Microsoft has
    designed shift-JIS code so that it can be mixed in strings with
    single-byte alphanumeric codes.  Thus the double-byte shift-JIS codes
    are greater than or equal to 0x8140.

    Note:  This function was called  jistojms in earlier versions.

Returns:
    The _mbcjistojms function returns zero if the argument is not in the
    range otherwise, the corresponding shift-JIS code is returned.


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

    void main()
      {
        unsigned short c;

        _setmbcp( 932 );
        c = _mbcjistojms( 0x2152 );
        printf( "%#6.4x\n", c );
      }

    produces the following:

    0x8171
