PS_GET_VALUE(3)

💖 PS_GET_VALUE 💖

okay bestie, so this is the manual page for PS_get_value(3) — it lives in the Library Functions Manual section 3, iykyk. it's giving "small function, big feelings" and honestly? we're obsessed. 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

PS_get_value — gets certain values 👑

like... it gets values. some of them. the certain ones. 💅

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

#include <pslib.h>

float PS_get_value(PSDoc *psdoc, char *name, float modifier)

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so here's the tea, bestie: this function grabs a bunch of values that were set earlier by PS_set_value(3). that's the whole vibe. and listen — the parameters are, by definition, float values. not vibes, not guesses, floats. periodt. ✨

now, the modifier parameter is the main character here. it tells you which resource you're pulling the value for. that can be:

• the id of a font 🖋️
• the id of an image 🖼️

and if you're not using it? it must be 0.0. no cap. not 1.0, not 0, not "whatever, close enough" — 0.0. 🫶

💀 RETURN VALUE 💀

returns the value of the parameter, or NULL. that's it, that's the whole answer. 🙈

not me writing a float function that can return NULL, but okay, we don't make the rules, we just report them. 😭

🔥 SEE ALSO 🔥

• PS_set_value(3) — the one who set the values in the first place. the origin story. 🌈

and that's the whole page, bestie!! this was PS_GET_VALUE(3) in the Library Functions Manual — yes, the footer literally just says PS_GET_VALUE(3) again, they said "same energy, no notes." 💅 no date, no version, just vibes and a page number that isn't a page number. slay. 💖✨🎀
