💖 JOYSTICK_BUTTON_INFO(3) 💖

okay bestie, so this one's from the Allegro manual — it's a section 3 page, so it's all about the library life ✨. And lowkey? It's a tiny little struct page. Short king energy. But we're gonna give it the full main character treatment anyway, because every page deserves it. 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

JOYSTICK_BUTTON_INFO — it's a whole vibe that stores joystick button information, fr fr. It lives in the Allegro game programming library, bestie. 🎮

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <allegro.h>

typedef struct JOYSTICK_BUTTON_INFO

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

okay so here's the whole struct, laid out exactly how it is, no cap:

int b;                           - boolean on/off flag
char *name;                      - description of this
                                   button

So <cyan>b</cyan> is your little boolean on/off flag — is the button pressed or is it not, that's the whole question 💀. And <cyan>name</cyan> is a description of this button, like a cute lil label so you know who's who. 🎀

And if you wanna know how to actually obtain and use this structure, go read the chapter literally called "Joystick routines" — it's giving instructions, it's giving lore, it's giving exactly what you need. 📖✨

not me reminding you again: the chapter is "Joystick routines". That's the one. iykyk. 💜
