✨ fFind(3) ✨

okay bestie, so this one lives in util/ulocks.h and it's literally just about finding a file lock 🎀 no cap.

🌸 NAME 🌸

fFind — find a file lock 💅

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

#include <util/ulocks.h>

NEOERR *fFind(int *plock, const char *file);

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• plock — the spot where your lock is gonna go 🫶
• file — the path of the file you're using as the lock, iykyk

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

So basically, fFind goes and finds the file at the path file, and then hands you back a lock identifier for it in plock. that's it, that's the whole vibe 💖

and if the file doesn't exist? it returns true. yes really. that's what it says. not me questioning it, just reporting the facts fr fr 😭

MT-Level: Safe. slay, thread-safe behaviour is giving main character energy 👑

🔥 RETURN VALUE 🔥

• plock — gets set to the lock identifier, periodt ✨
