## native-character-sizeof

Arguments: character &key (external-format :default)

This function returns an integer.

This function returns the number of bytes needed to represent character using the external-format specified by external-format. Overriding the default external-format is not supported in this Allegro CL release. When `:default` is specified, the value returned by `(find-external-format :default)` is used (see find-external-format).

See also iacl.htm for general information on international character set support in Allegro CL and foreign-functions.htm for general information on foreign functions in Allegro CL.
