## Functions

### FmAppCommandParseCallback ()

    const char *
    (*FmAppCommandParseCallback) (char opt,
                                  gpointer user_data);

The handler which converts key char into string representation.

See also: `fm_app_command_parse()`.

#### Parameters

opt | key character |
user_data | data passed from caller of `fm_app_command_parse()` |

#### Returns

string representation.

Since: 1.0.0

### fm_app_command_parse ()

    int
    fm_app_command_parse (const char *cmd,
                          const FmAppCommandParseOption *opts,
                          char **ret,
                          gpointer user_data);

This function parses line that contains some %<char> commands and does substitutions on them using callbacks provided by caller. Only options in `opts` and %% will be expanded, all other %<char> sequences will be skipped.

#### Parameters

cmd | line to parse |
opts | plain list of possible options |
ret | pointer for resulting string, string should be freed by caller. | [out][transfer full]
user_data | caller data to pass to callback |

#### Returns

number of valid options found in `cmd` .

Since: 1.0.0

### fm_canonicalize_filename ()

    char *
    fm_canonicalize_filename (const char *filename,
                              const char *cwd);

Makes a canonical name with full path from `filename` . Returned string should be freed by caller after usage.

#### Parameters

filename | a filename |
cwd | current work directory path |

#### Returns

a canonical name.

### fm_file_size_to_str ()

    char *
    fm_file_size_to_str (char *buf,
                         size_t buf_size,
                         goffset size,
                         gboolean si_prefix);

Converts `size` into text representation of form "21.4 kiB" for example.

#### Parameters

buf | pointer to array to make a string |
buf_size | size of `buf` |
size | number to convert |
si_prefix | `TRUE` to convert in SI units, `FALSE` to convert in IEC units |

#### Returns

`buf` .

### fm_file_size_to_str2 ()

    char *
    fm_file_size_to_str2 (char *buf,
                          size_t buf_size,
                          goffset size,
                          char size_units);

Converts `size` into text representation of form "21.4 kiB" for example. The `size_units` defines which unit will be selected to convert (similar to ones that 'du' utility uses):

- b : bytes

- k : KiB (1024 bytes)

- m : MiB (1048576 bytes)

- g : GiB (1073741824 bytes)

- K : kB (1000 bytes)

- M : MB (1000000 bytes)

- G : GB (1000000000 bytes)

- h : adaptive in IEC units

- H : adaptive in SI units

#### Parameters

buf | pointer to array to make a string |
buf_size | size of `buf` |
size | number to convert |
size_units | type of units to convert |

#### Returns

`buf` .

Since: 0.1.0
