uremove(3alleg4) Allegro manual uremove(3alleg4)NAME
uremove - Removes a character from a string. Allegro game programming library.
SYNOPSIS
#include <allegro.h>
int uremove(char *s, int index);
DESCRIPTION
Removes the character at the specified `index' within the string, sliding the rest of the data back to fill the gap. If `index' is nega-
tive, it counts backward from the end of the string. Example:
int length_in_bytes = ustrsizez(text_string);
...
length_in_bytes -= uremove(text_string, -1);
RETURN VALUE
Returns the number of bytes by which the trailing part of the string was moved.

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.
