🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so here's the tea, bestie 🍓 — ALLEGRO_DATE_STR is defined to a text string containing the year this version of Allegro was released, like 2004.

that's it!! that's the macro!! it's literally just the year, as a string, so you can be like "bestie what era is this build from" and it tells you, no cap 💀

it's giving built-in timestamps but make it fashion 🌈✨

ngl it's a small one, but it's lowkey highkey useful when you're staring at a build going "wait, which Allegro is this again??" 😭 and boom, the answer is just. sitting right there. in a macro. slay.

💜 SEE ALSO 💜

hmm, the original page doesn't list any SEE ALSO entries here, so like… nothing to link, bestie 🙈 the macro simply is. main character energy, no supporting cast 🎀

and that's the whole page!! tysm for reading, mwah 💖
