uoffset(3alleg4)						  Allegro manual						  uoffset(3alleg4)

NAME
uoffset - Finds the offset of a character in a string. Allegro game programming library. SYNOPSIS
#include <allegro.h> int uoffset(const char *s, int index); DESCRIPTION
Finds out the offset (in bytes from the start of the string) of the character at the specified `index' in the string `s'. A zero `index' parameter will return the first character of the string. If `index' is negative, it counts backward from the end of the string, so an `index' of `-1' will return an offset to the last character. Example: int from_third_letter = uoffset(text_string, 2); RETURN VALUE
Returns the offset in bytes to the specified character. SEE ALSO

set_uformat(3alleg4)						  Allegro manual					      set_uformat(3alleg4)

NAME
set_uformat - Set the global current text encoding format. Allegro game programming library. SYNOPSIS
#include <allegro.h> void set_uformat(int type); DESCRIPTION
Sets the current text encoding format. This will affect all parts of Allegro, wherever you see a function that returns a char *, or takes a char * as a parameter. `type' should be one of these values: U_ASCII - fixed size, 8-bit ASCII characters U_ASCII_CP - alternative 8-bit codepage (see set_ucodepage()) U_UNICODE - fixed size, 16-bit Unicode characters U_UTF8 - variable size, UTF-8 format Unicode characters Although you can change the text format on the fly, this is not a good idea. Many strings, for example the names of your hardware drivers and any language translations, are loaded when you call allegro_init(), so if you change the encoding format after this, they will be in the wrong format, and things will not work properly. Generally you should only call set_uformat() once, before allegro_init(), and then leave it on the same setting for the duration of your program. SEE ALSO
