🌸 TFIND(3P) 🌸

okay bestie, so this one is from the POSIX Programmer's Manual — yeah, that whole TFIND(3P) situation — and it is short, sweet, and honestly kind of a cliffhanger. let's get into it 💅

🫶 PROLOG 🫶

This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual. Fr fr. But listen: the Linux implementation of this interface may differ — so please, consult the corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior — or, plot twist, the interface may not be implemented on Linux at all. 💀 iconic chaos, we love to see it.

tfind — search binary search tree 🌳

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

#include <search.h>
