πŸ‘‘ mdatabase_tag β€” a lil function from The m17n Library manual (section 3m17n) πŸ’–

okay bestie, sit down, we're reading a manpage together and honestly? it's short, it's sweet, it's giving snack. no cap. πŸ“


✨ NAME ✨

mdatabase_tag β€” that's it. that's the whole name. the original page literally just puts the dash and dips, no one-liner description, and we respect that mysterious main character energy. πŸŽ€


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

MSymbol* mdatabase_tag (MDatabase * mdb)

one function, one argument, one return type. clean. minimal. iconic. πŸ’…


πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

so like, what does this baby even do? Get tags of a data. periodt. πŸ’œ

the mdatabase_tag() function returns an array of tags (and those tags are symbols, okay, MSymbols, not just vibes) that identify the data in mdb. πŸ”₯

and the length of that array? four. literally four. not three, not five. four. the way that number is so specific… it's giving fixed size, no negotiating. ✨

so yeah: pass in your MDatabase * mdb, get back MSymbol *, and there will be four of them in that array. slay. 🌈


gotta give credit where credit is due, bestie, it's the rules. 🫢
