✨ NAME ✨

mfontset_lookup -

(yeah the description is literally empty up there, the real lore is all in the sections below, no cap)

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

MPlist * mfontset_lookup (MFontset * fontset, MSymbol script, MSymbol
language, MSymbol charset)

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so like, this function lookups a fontset. the mfontset_lookup() function lookups fontset and hands you back a plist that describes the contents of fontset corresponding to the specified script, language, and charset. it's giving "let me tell you what's inside this thing" energy 💅

• if script is Mt, the keys of the returned plist are script name symbols for which some fonts are specified, and the values are NULL.
• if script is a script name symbol, the returned plist is decided by language.
  • if language is Mt, the keys of the plist are language name symbols for which some fonts are specified, and the values are NULL. a key may be Mt, which means some fallback fonts are specified for the script. 👀
  • if language is a language name symbol, the plist is a FONT-GROUP for the specified script and language. FONT-GROUP is a plist whose keys are FLT (FontLayoutTable) name symbols (Mt if no FLT is associated with the font) and whose values are pointers to MFont.
  • if language is Mnil, the plist is the fallback FONT-GROUP for the script.
• if script is Mnil, the returned plist is decided as below.
  • if charset is Mt, the keys of the returned plist are charset name symbols for which some fonts are specified, and the values are NULL.
  • if charset is a charset name symbol, the plist is a FONT-GROUP for the charset.
  • if charset is Mnil, the plist is a fallback FONT-GROUP.

🎀 RETURN VALUE 🎀

• it returns a plist describing the contents of a fontset. 🔥

bestie listen — the plist should be freed by m17n_object_unref(). don't just leave it lying around, that's not main character behavior, that's a memory leak 😭
