✨ NAME ✨

xcb_dpms_force_level — bestie, it's a request function and the manpage literally leaves the one-liner blank, so we're vibing with the void here 🫶

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <xcb/dpms.h>

🎀 Request function

xcb_void_cookie_t xcb_dpms_force_level(xcb_connection_t *conn,
       uint16_t power_level);

💅 REQUEST ARGUMENTS 💅

  • conn — the XCB connection to X11. it's giving "your link to the display server", iconic, essential, no notes 💖
  • power_level — okay so. the original says, and I quote: TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED. 😭 not me having to pass that along with a straight face. it is a uint16_t, that's what we know, that's what we're telling you.

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

the manpage has a DESCRIPTION heading and then... absolutely nothing under it. silence. the void. main character energy but make it mysterious 🌈 so like, there's genuinely no description text to relay here — the original just does not say anything, and I'm not about to invent lore that isn't real. periodt.

👑 RETURN VALUE 👑

it hands you back an xcb_void_cookie_t ✨ and any errors (if there even are any) have to be dealt with in the event loop, bestie — that's the assignment.

but wait, there's an alternative route 🫶 if you'd rather handle errors directly with xcb_request_check instead, then use xcb_dpms_force_level_checked — she's the checked version, she does the same job with receipts. see xcb-requests(3) for the full tea.

💀 ERRORS 💀

nope, nada, zero. this request does never generate any errors. flawless behavior, honestly 💜

⭐ SEE ALSO ⭐

the original page has a SEE ALSO section and then… leaves it empty 🍓 no references, no cross-links, nothing. just vibes. so there's nothing for me to list here, and I refuse to make something up. iykyk.
