okay so real talk, we're in the Library Functions Manual today bestie, and the vibe is very specific: it's an Allegro 5 API page, it's short, and it's adorable. let's get into it πŸ’…


✨ NAME ✨

ALLEGRO_FILE β€” Allegro 5 API. that's it. that's the whole name section. iconic minimalism honestly πŸŽ€


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <allegro5/allegro.h>

typedef struct ALLEGRO_FILE ALLEGRO_FILE;

look at her. two lines. no notes. 😌


πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

so ALLEGRO_FILE is an opaque object that represents an open file 🫢

and here's the lil plot twist: it doesn't have to be a real file on your disk, bestie β€” it could also be a virtual file. yes, both. she contains multitudes πŸ’«

lowkey the whole point of "opaque" is that you don't poke at her insides β€” the struct is a mystery on purpose, iykyk πŸ™ˆ

and that's the whole page!! short, sweet, slayed πŸ’…βœ¨

this has been the Allegro reference manual β€” page ALLEGRO_FILE(3) β€” brought to you with love πŸ§šβ€β™€οΈ see u in the next one, mwah πŸ“
