cfg_opt_t(3)

✨ NAME ✨

okay so bestie, this page is cfg_opt_t — the data structure that holds all the info about an option 💖 it's from the confuse library (libConfuse), manual page cfg_opt_t(3), and it's basically the lil' blueprint that tells libConfuse everything it needs to know about one option. iconic behavior, honestly.

💖 Detailed Description 💖

so like, cfg_opt_t is the data structure holding information about an option. that's the whole vibe. it's the little container that knows everything about your option so you don't have to 🫶

and here's the tea: the value(s) are stored as an array of fundamental values — we're talking strings, numbers, etc. just the basics, no cap 💅

🦋 Examples

lowkey there are so many lil' example files to go look at, and they ate fr fr:

• addsec.c
• cli.c
• deprecated.c
• env.c
• ftpconf.c
• nested.c
• parsebuf.c
• reread.c
• simple.c
