On windows, carriage return characters are used along with line feed
characters. When the carriage return is used, it's rendered as a space.
This removes carriage returns from strings before rendering them via
freetype.
Doing this in the expression will cause it to execute the function every
time the expression is evaluated, which is needless cycles wasted.
Instead, call wcslen before the loops begin.
Typedef pointers are unsafe. If you do:
typedef struct bla *bla_t;
then you cannot use it as a constant, such as: const bla_t, because
that constant will be to the pointer itself rather than to the
underlying data. I admit this was a fundamental mistake that must
be corrected.
All typedefs that were pointer types will now have their pointers
removed from the type itself, and the pointers will be used when they
are actually used as variables/parameters/returns instead.
This does not break ABI though, which is pretty nice.
GCC marks fread as a function that will throw a warning if you do not
use its return value. This is most likely done as a measure to ensure
code security.
