💖 pack_mputw 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the 3alleg4 manual section for pack_mputw, straight out of the Allegro game programming library ✨ she's a tiny little function but she serves.

🌸 NAME 🌸

pack_mputw — it's giving pack_putc(), but for 16-bit Motorola byte ordering words 🎀 part of the Allegro game programming library, no cap.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <allegro.h>

int pack_mputw(int c, PACKFILE *f);

like… that's it. that's the whole vibe check 🫶

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so basically, she's exactly like pack_putc, except instead of writing one little byte, she writes a 16-bit word to a file 😌

and the way she does it?? Motorola byte ordering 💅 which is also known as:

• most significant byte first
• a.k.a. big-endian

so the big important byte goes first, like a main character walking into the room first 👑 periodt.

🔥 SEE ALSO 🔥

lowkey go read pack_putc too, they're besties fr fr 🫶

Allegro version 4.4.3 — and that's the whole page, bestie!! pack_mputw(3alleg4) said what she said, slay, mwah 💋💖✨🌈
