💅 vc_font_size — the kernel API manual, bestie edition ✨

Okay so like, welcome to vc_font_size(9), a page straight out of the Kernel API Manual, and honestly? It's a little baddie of a function. Let's get into it 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

vc_font_size — literally calculates the size of the font data, in bytes. That's the whole gig. Iconic, lowkey 🫶

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

unsigned int vc_font_size (const struct vc_font *font );

That's the vibe check right there — takes one const struct vc_font * and hands you back an unsigned int. No cap 💖

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• font — The VC font. That's it, that's the argument. She's the main character here 👑

---

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

Okay so vc_font_size calculates the number of bytes of font data in the font you specified with, well, font. And like — how does it know? Not me guessing, bestie: the function calculates the size from the font parameters. So it's reading the vibes off the struct itself and doing the math. Slay 🧚✨

---

🔥 RETURN 🔥

The size of the font data, in bytes. A number. A gift. Periodt 💅
