The comparison is based on strings interpreted as appropriate for the program's current locale for category LC_COLLATE. (See setlocale(3)).  

RETURN VALUE

The strcoll() function returns an integer less than, equal to, or greater than zero if s1 is found, respectively, to be less than, to match, or be greater than s2, when both are interpreted as appropriate for the current locale.
