FcCharSetAddChar(3)

💅 FcCharSetAddChar(3) — the fontconfig manual page, bestie edition 🎀

Okay so real quick: this whole page is FcCharSetAddChar(3), part of the fontconfig man pages, and it's honestly one of the short ones — a little snack, a lil appetizer. Let's get into it ✨

---

✨ NAME ✨

FcCharSetAddChar — add a character to a charset 🦋

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <fontconfig/fontconfig.h>

FcBool FcCharSetAddChar (FcCharSet *fcs, FcChar32 ucs4);

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

So basically FcCharSetAddChar adds a single Unicode char to the set 🌸 — one (1) character, that's the whole vibe, no batch nonsense here, she does one thing and she does it well 💅

It returns FcFalse on failure, and the two reasons it can flop are, quote unquote:

• the set is a constant set (so, like, nope, not editable, read the room 😭), or
• you ran out of memory 🫶

That's literally the entire page. No flags, no env vars, no exit statuses, no secret options hiding in the back. She's a two-argument icon and we respect her for it 👑

Ngl though — if you're ignoring that return value, that's a choice. FcFalse is right there telling you something went wrong 🙈

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

Not on this page, bestie — the original gives us zero SEE ALSO references, so I'm not gonna manifest any out of thin air ✨
