✨ NAME ✨

al_load_config_file — Allegro 5 API (yes that's literally the whole name section, she's short and she knows it 💅)

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <allegro5/allegro.h>

ALLEGRO_CONFIG *al_load_config_file(const char *filename)

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So what does she do? She reads a configuration file straight off the disk. That's it. That's the whole vibe. Obsessed.

If something goes wrong, she hands you back NULL — no config for you, babe — so always check, fr fr. 🙈

And listen, this is the important part: the configuration structure she gives you? You gotta clean up after yourself and destroy it with al_destroy_config(3alleg5). No leaving your config structs lying around like laundry, bestie. It's giving main character energy to clean up your memory. 👑

and that's the tea, bestie 🍓 This lil' page lives in the Allegro reference manual, version 5 (you know, the 3alleg5 in her name — iykyk 💖). Go forth and load those config files responsibly. Mwah. 💋✨
