✨ NAME ✨

al_uninstall_mouse — it's part of the Allegro 5 API, and yes it does exactly what it sounds like 🐭💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <allegro5/allegro.h>

void al_uninstall_mouse(void)

that's it. no args. no return value. she's low maintenance fr fr 🫶

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So, bestie, what this does is uninstall the active mouse driver — if any is currently installed. If there isn't one hanging around? cool, nothing to do, no drama. 💀

The way that this also automatically unregisters the mouse event source with any event queues — like, it handles the cleanup for you, you don't gotta go chasing down your event queues and unhooking stuff yourself. she does it. main character energy, honestly. ✨👑

And here's the cute part that saves you from ever forgetting: this function is automatically called when Allegro is shut down. so like, Allegro's got your back on the way out the door. 🚪🌈

no cap — you usually don't have to call this yourself, but it's there if you want to uninstall the mouse driver before you shut everything down. 🍓
