💅 libssh2_channel_subsystem — bestie edition ✨

okay so this is a page from the libssh2 manual, and it's a lil baby one, but we're gonna give it the full main character treatment anyway 🎀

🌸 NAME 🌸

libssh2_channel_subsystem — it's literally just a convenience macro for libssh2_channel_process_startup(3) calls 🫶

like. that's it. that's the whole job. it's the cute lil shortcut bestie so you don't gotta type the whole big function name every time 💖

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <libssh2.h>

int
libssh2_channel_subsystem(LIBSSH2_CHANNEL *channel, const char *subsystem);

so you drop that #include <libssh2.h> at the top, and then you've got libssh2_channel_subsystem() ready to go with your channel (a LIBSSH2_CHANNEL *) and your subsystem (a const char *). slay ✨

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

think of it like the cute lil nickname version of the real thing. same energy, less typing, no cap 🧚
