.Os
.Sh NAME
.Nm rtou8 ,
.Nm u8set
.Nd encode a rune to UTF-8
.Sh LIBRARY
.Lb librune
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.In mbstring.h
.Ft int
.Fn rtou8 "char8_t *s" "rune ch" "size_t n"
.Ft size_t
.Fn u8set "char8_t *s" "rune ch" "size_t n"
.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Fn rtou8
function writes the rune
.Fa ch
to the UTF-8 encoded buffer
.Fa s
of length
.Fa n ,
returning the number of bytes required to UTF-8 encode
.Fa ch .
.Pp
The
.Fn u8set
function fills the buffer
.Fa s
of length
.Fa n
with the constant rune
.Fa ch .
It is similar to the
.Fn rtou8
function,
but writes more than 1 rune if the given buffer has the capacity.
Unlike
.Fn rtou8 ,
this function returns the number of bytes that were successfully written
to
.Fa s .
If
.Fa n
is a multiple of
.Fn u8wdth ch
the return value will be equal to
.Fa n ,
however in the case that
.Fa n
is not a multiple then
.Fa s
is filled as much as possible,
and a count shorter than
.Fa n
is returned.
.Pp
Both of these functions assume the input is valid UTF-8.
.Sh RETURN VALUES
The
.Fn rtou8
function returns the number of bytes required to write
.Fa ch
to the buffer
.Fa s .
.Pp
The
.Fn u8set
function returns the number of bytes written to the buffer
.Fa s .
.Sh EXAMPLES
The following calls to
.Fn rtou8
and
.Fn u8set
fill a buffer with box-drawing characters to create a top-row of a box.
.Bd -literal -offset indent
#define SCREEN_WIDTH 80
int bdr_wdth = u8wdth(U'─'); /* box-drawing rune width */
size_t bufsiz = SCREEN_WIDTH * bdr_wdth;
char8_t *s = malloc(bufsiz);
rtou8(s, U'┌', bdr_wdth);
u8set(s + bdr_wdth, U'─', bufsiz - bdr_wdth * 2);
rtou8(s + bufsiz - bdr_wdth, U'┐', bdr_wdth);
