IXP_SMPRINT(3)

💖 NAME 💖

ixp_smprint — the string-building bestie you didn't know you needed ✨

Okay so quick vibe check: this is from the Library Functions Manual, section 3 (the library calls girlies 🎀), and it's literally just one function that hands you back a shiny new string. Slay.

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <ixp.h>

char *ixp_smprint(const char *fmt, ...);

Look at her. One header, one function, one little ... doing a whole lot of work. Iconic 💅

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So here's the tea, bestie 🍵 — ixp_smprint takes its arguments and formats them exactly the way printf(3) does. Same energy, same rules, no cap.

Then it returns a malloc(3)-allocated string containing the result. 🎀

⚠️ Not me reminding you: that string is malloc(3)-allocated, so it's yours to deal with. The function is not gonna clean up after you — that's main character responsibility, babes 💀

And that's genuinely the whole thing. Short, sweet, does one job and does it well. We love a lowkey queen who doesn't overcomplicate her life 👑✨

💜 and that's a wrap on our little library moment 💜

Bye bestie, go free(3) responsibly 😭🌸
