mplist_next(3m17n)

✨ NAME ✨

mplist_next — bestie, it's the function that hands you the rest of your property list 💖 (the original page left the description blank, so that's all the name gives us, and honestly? iconic minimalism)

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

MPlist* mplist_next (MPlist * plist)

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Okay so, mplist_next() gives you back the next sublist of a property list, periodt.

Here's the vibe: you pass in a property list called plist, and it returns a pointer to the sublist of plist that starts at the second element in plist. Like, it literally just skips the first element and shows you everyone else. The way that it's giving "move on, next chapter" energy 💅

And if the length of plist is zero? It returns NULL. No elements, no sublist, no problem — just NULL, bestie. That's the whole rule, no cap.

Heads up: it returns a pointer to a sublist of plist — the function doesn't copy anything, it's just pointing at what's already there 🫶
