✨ FcPatternEqual(3) ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the fontconfig glow-up era 💖 this one is a tiny little function from fontconfig/fontconfig.h and it's giving "short but iconic" — literally the whole page is like three lines, but we're gonna make it cute anyway 🎀

🌸 NAME 🌸

FcPatternEqual — compare patterns, bestie 🫶

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <fontconfig/fontconfig.h>

FcBool FcPatternEqual (const FcPattern *pa, const FcPattern *pb);

like yes, that's the whole thing, she's lowkey minimal 💅

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

So FcPatternEqual returns whether pa and pb are exactly alike 👑 no cap, that's the vibe check: are these two patterns literally identical or not? It hands you back an FcBool — the pattern equivalent of "same" or "not same", fr fr 🌈

no fuzzy matching, no "close enough" energy here — it's exactly alike or it's not, periodt 💀

and that's the whole entire manual page, bestie 🦋 it's giving short and sweet, main character energy for a two-argument function ngl 🍓
