TICKIT_TER...T_READABLE(3)

👑 tickit_term_input_readable — read more data from the terminal 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the TICKIT_TER...T_READABLE(3) page from the Library Functions Manual ✨ this is the one that goes and grabs the bytes your terminal is sitting on, iykyk 🦋

🌸 NAME 🌸

tickit_term_input_readable — read more data from the terminal</p> 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <tickit.h>

void tickit_term_input_readable(TickitTerm *tt);

Link with -ltickit.

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

so basically, tickit_term_input_readable() is how you tell the terminal instance "hey girl, there's more data available on the input file descriptor — or there might be — go get it" and then it, like, reads it 🫶

heads up bestie: calling this function may block if the underlying file descriptor is in blocking mode. not a drill, it will literally just sit there waiting 😭

and because it actually reads stuff, it can result in TICKIT_EV_KEY or TICKIT_EV_MOUSE events being invoked 🔥 so like, real events, real consequences, main character energy fr fr.

this function also invokes deferred TICKIT_EV_RESIZE events — but only if they've been enabled by tickit_term_observe_sigwinch(3) ⭐ no enabling, no resize events, that's the vibe check.

🎀 RETURN VALUE 🎀

tickit_term_input_readable() returns no value. nothing. void. it's giving absolutely nothing and that's correct 💖
