TICKIT_TER...DRIVERNAME(3)

💖 TICKIT_TER...DRIVERNAME(3) 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the Library Functions Manual — yes it's a 3 page, yes that means C library functions, and yes we're gonna have fun with it 🌸

✨ NAME ✨

tickit_term_get_drivername — returns the terminal driver name 🎀

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

#include <tickit.h>

const char *tickit_term_get_drivername(TickitTerm *tt);

Link with -ltickit. 🔥

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

okay so. tickit_term_get_drivername() hands you back the string name of the driver for this terminal type. that's it. that's the whole job. she's a one-task icon 👑

and here's the tea on what string you actually get:

• it'll be "xterm" for terminal types supported by the xterm driver ✨
• or it'll be "terminfo" for the others, which are supported instead by the terminfo driver 🫶

⚠️ NO CAP, LISTEN UP: the returned value points directly into the buffer allocated by the TickitTerm instance itself. so do NOT modify it and do NOT free it. not yours. hands off. 🙈 that buffer is not your business, bestie 💀

🌈 RETURN VALUE 🌈

tickit_term_get_drivername() returns a string buffer pointer. that's the vibe. one pointer, zero drama ⭐
