✨ NAME ✨

al_change_directory β€” it's giving Allegro 5 API, bestie πŸ’–

okay so picture this: you're deep in some random folder and you just NEED to be somewhere else. That's literally what this little icon does. She moves you. She relocates you. Main character energy, no cap.


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <allegro5/allegro.h>

bool al_change_directory(const char *path)

like... one function, one argument, one bool coming back at you. simple. clean. slay. πŸ’…


πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

So here's the tea, bestie πŸ“ β€” al_change_directory changes the current working directory to path. That's it. That's the whole vibe. You hand her a path, she packs up your whole "where am I rn" situation and moves it there. πŸŽ€

And she tells you how it went, because she's not gonna leave you guessing:

  • true on success β€” periodt, you're moved, we ate πŸ’–
  • false on error β€” it didn't work, and she's letting you know 😭
lowkey important: if you get a false back, that means the directory change did not happen β€” don't just ignore it and keep going like everything's fine, because bestie it is not fine πŸ™ˆ
