stralloc_chomp(3)

✨ NAME ✨

okay bestie, say hi to stralloc_chomp — the little function whose whole personality is removing trailing CR, LF or CRLF 💅

🌸 SYNTAX 🌸

so here's how you summon her:

#include <libowfat/stralloc.h>

int stralloc_chomp(stralloc* sa);

yeah. one include, one function call, that's it. no cap. 🫶

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

okay so picture this: you've got your sa (a stralloc*, obviously), and she's got some crusty line-ending junk hanging off the end of her. stralloc_chomp is the friend who comes in and gently yeets it off. 🧹✨

She removes a trailing CRLF, CR or LF from sa, and then — because she's a giver — she hands you back the number of removed characters (i.e. 0, 1 or 2).

the way she literally tells you exactly how much she took off?? obsessed. it's giving "I cleaned up AND I gave you a receipt". 🔥

💖 RETURN VALUE 💖

she returns the number of removed characters (0, 1, or 2).

that's it. that's the whole vibe check. if she returns 0 she didn't find anything to chomp, and honestly? respect the honesty. 😌
