al_is_event_queue_paused(3alleg5)

✨ al_is_event_queue_paused ✨

okay so bestie, this is a page straight out of the Allegro 5 API reference manual — the 3alleg5 section, iykyk 💅 — and it's honestly so short and so sweet that you're gonna be done reading it before your iced coffee even melts 🧊

🌸 NAME 🌸

al_is_event_queue_paused — the little function that tells you whether your event queue is currently on pause or not, no cap 🎀

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

#include <allegro5/allegro.h>

bool al_is_event_queue_paused(const ALLEGRO_EVENT_QUEUE *queue)

like, that's the whole vibe. one include, one function, one bool coming back at you ✨

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

Return true if the event queue is paused.

that's it. that's the function. it's giving "yes or no, no drama" 🫶 you hand it a const ALLEGRO_EVENT_QUEUE * and it tells you whether that queue is currently paused. paused = true, not paused = false. iconic behavior, honestly.

heads up bestie: this one just asks the question, it doesn't change anything. if you wanna actually pause or unpause the queue, that's a whole other function (see below, love) 💜

and that's the whole page, bestie, you ate it 🍓 no crumbs left. this was pulled from the Allegro reference manual, and yeah, the 3alleg5 manual name is right there in the page title at the top if you ever forget where you are 💖 mwah, go pause some event queues 🎀✨
