FcFontSetPrint(3)

💅 NAME 💅

okay bestie, this is FcFontSetPrint(3) — the section 3 function that prints a set of patterns to stdout. That’s the whole assignment, and she ate.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <fontconfig/fontconfig.h>

void FcFontSetPrint (FcFontSet *set);

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

So like, FcFontSetPrint is useful for diagnosing font related issues: it prints the complete contents of every pattern in set. Every single pattern, no skipping, no crumbs.

The format of the output is designed to be of help to users and developers, and — important — it may change at any time. That’s the vibe: helpful today, maybe different tomorrow.

The argument is the FcFontSet *set from the signature, and the function is void, so it’s not handing you a return value. It’s just doing its little print-to-stdout moment. ✨
