Tk_DeleteImage(3tk)

💖 Tk_DeleteImage — bestie, we're deleting an image 💖

okay so this is the Tk_DeleteImage page from the Tk library procedures manual (yes, section 3tk, we love her) — it's the little function that goes ✨ poof ✨ on an image. Let's get into it. 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

Tk_DeleteImage — Destroy an image. just straight up delete it, no notes 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <tk.h>

Tk_DeleteImage(interp, name)

that's the whole vibe. two args, one include, zero drama. 🦋

---

🫶 ARGUMENTS 🫶

• Tcl_Interp *interp (in) — the interpreter for which the image was created. like, whose image is this? that one. 👑
• const char *name (in) — the name of the image. the name, bestie. the actual name. 🍓

---

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

So Tk_DeleteImage deletes the image that's identified by interp and name, if there is one. That's it. That's the whole job. 😌

Every instance of that image is gonna redisplay as empty regions — like, the picture is gone gone, and what's left behind is just blank space where it used to be. not a placeholder, not a broken-image icon, just emptiness. 💀

And if the image you asked about doesn't exist at all? then the procedure has no effect. Nothing happens. No error, no crash, no screaming. It just… doesn't do anything. iconic, honestly 🌈

Heads up bestie: no return value mentioned, no error mentioned — this one is a quiet deleter. It doesn't tell you if it worked. It just does the thing. 🙈
