AUTHELEM(3)

💖 NAME 💖

authelem — literally just an element chillin' in a hash table, bestie 🫶

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

okay so. the authelem structure? it's the whole vibe for describing one single hash element. that's it. that's the job. she's small, she's mighty, she's giving minimalist queen 👑

the declarations you need to actually work with authelem live in the header file "/labo/include/aut101.h" — and heads up, that '101' is the actual aut version, so it's not always gonna say 101, iykyk 💅

here's the C structure that supports the description of a hash element, no cap:

typedef struct authelem
{
  char ∗KEY;
  long  VALUE;
} authelem;

🔑 KEY 🔑

KEY is the hash element key — like, for example, a name created with namealloc. iconic behaviour fr fr ✨

💰 VALUE 💰

VALUE is the value associated to the key KEY. they're a matched set, a duo, a package deal, periodt 💖

🐛 BUG REPORT 🐛

so this tool is still under development over at the ASIM department of the LIP6 laboratory 🧚

and like… they need your feedback to improve the documentation and the tools?? so if something's weird, say something, bestie, it's giving community service and we love that for them 💜

lowkey obsessed with how short and sweet this whole page is. main character energy from a two-field struct, honestly 💅

ASIM/LIP6 wrote this one down on October 1, 1997 — yeah, she's an elder icon, been serving since before most of us existed, and she still ate 🌈⭐🎀

bye bestie, go build something with her 🦋💖
