💖 aa_defrenderparams(3) 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the Library Functions Manual, section 3 🎀 this is a lil page about one single global variable and honestly? it's giving lowkey iconic.

✨ NAME ✨

aa_defrenderparams — the default rendering parameters. that's it. that's the whole vibe. 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <aalib.h>

extern struct aa_renderparams aa_defrenderparams;

like, that's the whole thing. no function call, no drama, just a global sitting there being a global. main character energy fr fr 👑

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so aa_defrenderparams is the default rendering parameters 💖 it's a struct aa_renderparams that ships with all the sensible starter settings already in it, so you don't have to build one from scratch every single time (not me doing that manually 💀).

you pass it to the aa_render function family — the whole lil render squad. that's the entire point of it. it's the "just use the defaults, babe" option 🫶

it's extern, so it's the actual shared variable, not a copy. treat it nice ✨

👀 SEE ALSO 👀

the way this list is long 😭 aalib has a whole friend group and you're about to meet every single one of them:

🫶 and that's the page!! short, sweet, defaults forever.

this lil cutie came out of the c2man tool chewing on aalib.h, dated 8 September 1999, and it lives as page aa_defrenderparams(3). ok bye bestie, go render something slay ✨💖🌈
