 Note also that the locale's sorting order does _not_ come into play;
 comparisons are based on character values only.(1)
 
+   The following example demonstrates the use of a comparison function
+with 'asort()'.  The comparison function, 'case_fold_compare()', does a
+string comparison ignoring case (by mapping both values to lowercase).
+
+     # case_fold_compare --- compare as strings, ignoring case
+
+     function case_fold_compare(i1, v1, i2, v2,    l, r)
+     {
+         l = tolower(v1)
+         r = tolower(v2)
+
+         if (l < r)
+             return -1
+         else if (l == r)
+             return 0
+         else
+             return 1
+     }
+
+   And here is the test program for it:
+
+     # Test program
+
+     BEGIN {
+         Letters = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz" \
+                   "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ"
+         split(Letters, data, "")
+
+         asort(data, result, "case_fold_compare")
+
+         for (i = 1; i <= 52; i++) {
+             printf("%s", result[i])
+             if (i % 26 == 0)
+                 printf("\n")
+             else
+                 printf(" ")
+         }
+     }
+
+   When run, we get the following:
