TICKIT_TERM_GET_SIZE(3)

💖 TICKIT_TERM_GET_SIZE 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the tickit terminal-size management page 💅 this one is part of the Library Functions Manual, and it's literally all about three lil functions: tickit_term_get_size, tickit_term_set_size, and tickit_term_refresh_size 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

tickit_term_get_size, tickit_term_set_size, tickit_term_refresh_size — manage terminal size 🦋

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <tickit.h>

void tickit_term_get_size(TickitTerm *tt, int *lines, int *cols);
void tickit_term_set_size(TickitTerm *tt, int lines, int cols);
void tickit_term_refresh_size(TickitTerm *tt);

Link with -ltickit.

👑 DESCRIPTION 👑

so here's the tea ☕ these three functions are the whole size-management squad, and each one does its own lil thing:

• tickit_term_get_size() — fetches the currently-known size of the terminal and drops it into the two integers you hand it via pointers. that's it, that's the function 🫶
• tickit_term_set_size() — stores a new size for the terminal into the instance, and invokes any TICKIT_EV_RESIZE event handlers. not me setting the size and triggering a whole event 😭 iconic behaviour fr fr.
• tickit_term_refresh_size() — queries the size of the terminal by using the TIOCGWINSZ ioctl(2) call on the currently-associated output filehandle, and invokes any TICKIT_EV_RESIZE event handlers if the size has changed. lowkey the main character of the trio, going out and actually asking the terminal what's up 👑

💫 RETURN VALUE 💫

tickit_term_get_size, tickit_term_set_size and tickit_term_refresh_size return no value. nothing. void. silence. they just do the thing and dip 💀
