✨ NAME ✨

fix_filename_case — converts a filename to a standardised case. Part of the Allegro game programming library, bestie! This page is fix_filename_case(3alleg4) from the Allegro manual, btw. 💅

📜 SYNOPSIS 📜

#include <allegro.h>

char *fix_filename_case(char *path);

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

Okay so basically: fix_filename_case takes the filename stored in path and converts it to a standardised case. On DOS platforms, that means the whole thing gets turned ENTIRELY UPPERCASE — like it's yelling, but in a filename way. On other platforms? This function literally does nothing. It's giving "I'm just here for the vibe check" energy. 😭

Example, because examples eat every time:

get_executable_name(name, sizeof(name));
fix_filename_case(name);
allegro_message("Running `%s'\n", name);

🔁 RETURN VALUE 🔁

It returns a copy of the path parameter. So you get your path back, just as a copy — no cap. 💖
