💖 mtext_dup — from the m17n Library, manual page mtext_dup(3m17n) 💖

okay bestie, sit down, hydrate, because we're about to talk about copying an M-text and honestly? it's giving low-effort, high-reward. ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

mtext_dup — the function that makes a whole new M-text out of your old one 💅

(yeah the original NAME section was literally just mtext_dup - with nothing after it, so consider that a vibe, not a typo 🙈)

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

MText* mtext_dup (MText * mt)

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

okay so here's the tea ☕ — mtext_dup() creates a copy of an M-text. you hand it your M-text mt, and it hands you back a whole new one.

and the iconic part? the copy inherits all the text properties of mt. all of them. it's not doing that thing where it copies the text and then ghosts the properties — no ma'am. the properties come too. periodt. 👑

🎀 RETURN VALUE 🎀

This function returns a pointer to the created copy. 🫶

like, that's it. that's the return value. a pointer. to the copy. you're welcome.
