(This is the documentation for SDL3, which is the current stable version. SDL2 was the previous version!)

SDL_isprint

Report if a character is "printable".

Header File

Defined in <SDL3/SDL_stdinc.h>

Syntax

int SDL_isprint(int x);

Function Parameters

int

x

character value to check.

Return Value

(int) Returns non-zero if x falls within the character class, zero otherwise.

Remarks

Be advised that "printable" has a definition that goes back to text terminals from the dawn of computing, making this a sort of special case function that is not suitable for Unicode (or most any) text management.

WARNING: Regardless of system locale, this will only treat ASCII values ' ' (0x20) through '~' (0x7E) as true.

Thread Safety

It is safe to call this function from any thread.

Version

This function is available since SDL 3.1.3.
