✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void* msymbol_get (MSymbol symbol, MSymbol key)

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Get the value of a symbol property. 🫶

The msymbol_get() function searches for the value of the symbol property that belongs to symbol and whose key is key. So like, it goes looking for that one specific property — the one hanging out on symbol with the matching key — and if symbol has such a symbol property, its value is returned. Otherwise NULL is returned. that's it, that's the whole function, she's simple and she slays 💅

---

👑 RETURN VALUE 👑

If an error is detected, msymbol_get() returns NULL and assigns an error code to the external variable merror_code. yes bestie, she's writing to a global, keep an eye on it 😭
