🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

#include "aut101.h"
void autfreeblock( Pointer )
   char ∗ Pointer;

---

🎀 PARAMETERS 🎀

• Pointer — the pointer that's getting handed back to the system. it's basically the "return to sender" label on the package. 📦

---

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

autfreeblock frees a pointer. that's it. that's the whole vibe. ✨

now, no cap, these days it's just an encapsulation of the system free function — nothing fancy happening under the hood right now. but lowkey it may evolve into a special allocator in the future, so like... stay tuned. 👀

the important part: its use is strongly encouraged. yes bestie, use it. periodt. 💖

---

🍓 RETURN VALUE 🍓

autfreeblock returns nothing. zero. nada. it does the thing and dips. 💀

---

🌈 EXAMPLE 🌈

#include "aut101.h"
  char ∗Pointer;
  Pointer = autallocblock( 1024 );
  ...
  autfreeblock( Pointer );

look at that. allocated it, used it, freed it. main character energy, honestly. 👑
