💖 aa_recommendhidisplay — Library Functions Manual 💖

okay bestie, so this is aa_recommendhidisplay(3), from the Library Functions Manual, and it's literally the tiniest little function with the biggest main character energy. no cap. let's get into it 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

aa_recommendhidisplay — put the driver you picked at the very front of the list of recommended display drivers. like, front of the line, VIP velvet rope, first-in-the-groupchat kind of front. 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <aalib.h>

void aa_recommendhidisplay(const char *name);

🎀 PARAMETERS 🎀

• const char *name — the name of the driver, bestie. and when we say "name" we mean it ought to match the "shortname" field of the driver definition structure. so like, use the shortname, not the cute long one. iykyk. 🌈

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Insert the given driver at the beginning of the list of recommended display drivers.

that's it. that's the whole function. it's giving short king. it literally just shoves your driver to the front of the recommended list and dips. no return value, no drama, no notes. periodt. 👑

lowkey iconic that a function this small gets its own manpage, and honestly? she deserves it. 💜
