FcStrCopyFilename - create a complete path from a filename
SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag... ] file... -lfontconfig [ library... ]
#include <fontconfig.h>
FcChar8 * FcStrCopyFilename (const FcChar8 *s);
DESCRIPTION
FcStrCopyFilename constructs an absolute pathname from s. It converts any leading '~' characters in to the value of the HOME environment
variable, and any relative paths are converted to absolute paths using the current working directory. Sequences of '/' characters are con-
verted to a single '/', and names containing the current directory '.' or parent directory '..' are correctly reconstructed. Returns NULL
if '~' is the leading character and HOME is unset or disabled (see FcConfigEnableHome).
VERSION
Fontconfig version 2.5.0
