🌸 NAME 🌸

al_ftell — Allegro 5 API

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <allegro5/allegro.h>

int64_t al_ftell(ALLEGRO_FILE *f)

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

So like, al_ftell returns the current position in the given file 🫶

If something goes wrong, it returns -1 😭 and errno is set to indicate the error — so yes, check your error tea, bestie.

On some platforms this function may not support large files. Not every platform has big-file main character energy, no cap 💀
