💖 al_destroy_timer — Allegro 5 API 💖

okay bestie, we're in the al_destroy_timer(3alleg5) page and honestly? it's giving "cleanup era" ✨ this is your girl's guide to yeeting a timer into the void, Allegro 5 style 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

al_destroy_timer — the Allegro 5 API function that says "bye babe" to a timer 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <allegro5/allegro.h>

void al_destroy_timer(ALLEGRO_TIMER *timer)

like, that's the whole signature. one pointer, no return value, no drama 🦋

---

👑 DESCRIPTION 👑

so here's the tea, bestie 🍓:

• It uninstalls the timer you specified. gone. uninstalled. periodt.
• If the timer is started, it will automatically be stopped before uninstallation — no need to stop it yourself first, she handles that 💅
• It will also automatically unregister the timer with any event queues — so you don't have to go around manually unregistering it from every queue it's chilling in. she's a considerate icon for that fr fr 🫶
• And if you pass the NULL pointer? It does nothing. zero. nada. no crash, no chaos, just vibes 😌

not me emphasizing this but the NULL thing is genuinely important — it's documented behaviour, not just "probably fine" 💀
