πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
#include <allegro5/allegro.h>
bool al_ustr_insert_cstr(ALLEGRO_USTR *us, int pos, const char *s)
π DESCRIPTION π
so likeβ¦ it's literally al_ustr_insert(3alleg5) but the thing you're shoving in there is a C-style string, not an ALLEGRO_USTR. that's the whole plot twist, no cap π₯
and where does it go? at byte offset pos. that's it, that's the function. byte offset, not character offset, iykyk β pos is a byte position fr fr π
not me reminding you that the C-style string goes at posβ¦ okay yes me, that's exactly what I'm doing π
π SEE ALSO π

and that's the vibe check, bestie π this was pulled straight from the Allegro reference manual, page al_ustr_insert_cstr(3alleg5), part of the Allegro 5 API β¨ go forth and insert your strings, slay π
