LOWDOWN_TERM_NEW(3)	    Library Functions Manual	   LOWDOWN_TERM_NEW(3)

NAME
       lowdown_term_new	-- allocate a Markdown terminal	renderer

LIBRARY
       library "liblowdown"

SYNOPSIS
       #include	<sys/queue.h>
       #include	<stdio.h>
       #include	<lowdown.h>

       void *
       lowdown_term_new(const struct lowdown_opts *opts);

DESCRIPTION
       Allocates   a   terminal	  renderer   using  variables  in  the	struct
       lowdown_opts_term structure.  Its fields	are documented in  lowdown(3).
       The   returned  pointer	may  be	 used  with  multiple  invocations  of
       lowdown_term_rndr(3) and	must be	freed with lowdown_term_free(3).

       The  bits  recognised  in  opts->oflags	 are   LOWDOWN_TERM_SHORTLINK,
       LOWDOWN_TERM_NOCOLOUR, and LOWDOWN_TERM_NOLINK.

RETURN VALUES
       Returns	a  pointer to the renderer or NULL on memory failure.  The re-
       turned pointer must be freed with lowdown_term_free(3).

EXAMPLES
       The following parses b of length	bsz and	outputs	in ANSI	terminal  for-
       mat.

	     struct lowdown_buf	*out;
	     struct lowdown_doc	*doc;
	     struct lowdown_node *n;
	     void *rndr;

	     if	(setlocale(LC_CTYPE, "en_US.UTF-8") == NULL)
		     err(1, NULL);

	     if	((doc =	lowdown_doc_new(NULL)) == NULL)
		     err(1, NULL);
	     if	((n = lowdown_doc_parse(doc, NULL, b, bsz, NULL)) == NULL)
		     err(1, NULL);
	     if	((out =	lowdown_buf_new(256)) == NULL)
		     err(1, NULL);
	     if	((rndr = lowdown_term_new(NULL)) == NULL)
		     err(1, NULL);
	     if	(!lowdown_term_rndr(out, rndr, n))
		     err(1, NULL);

	     fwrite(out->data, 1, out->size, stdout);

	     lowdown_term_free(rndr);
	     lowdown_buf_free(out);
	     lowdown_node_free(n);
	     lowdown_doc_free(doc);
