al_resume_timer(3)

💖 al_resume_timer(3) — Library Functions Manual, but make it group chat 💖

okay so bestie, this is the page for al_resume_timer(3), and it's from the Allegro 5 API. The manual calls itself the Library Functions Manual — very official, very demure — and the whole vibe is “press play again on a timer without rewinding it.” 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

• al_resume_timer — Allegro 5 API

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <allegro5/allegro.h>

void al_resume_timer(ALLEGRO_TIMER *timer)

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

So you’ve got a timer, and you want it resumed. That’s the whole assignment, bestie. al_resume_timer resumes the timer you pass in. ✨

From that moment on, the timer’s counter will increment at a constant rate, and it will begin generating events. It’s giving “back in business” energy. 🔥

Resuming a timer that is already started does nothing — literally no cap, it’s a no-op. 🙈

Resuming a stopped timer will not reset the timer’s counter. That’s different from al_start_timer(3), bestie — do not confuse them, iykyk. 💅

lowkey important: this page is not saying it restarts the count, okay? It says the counter does not reset when you resume a stopped timer. The al_start_timer(3) comparison is right there in the original, so keep that in mind.

That’s the whole page, bestie — straight from the Allegro reference manual, with the footer giving al_resume_timer(3) and no version/date stamped on it. Stay slay, resume responsibly. 💖🎀🦋
