ppd_find_choice, ppd_find_marked_choice, ppd_find_option_by_keyword - set of functions for returning pointers to choices from PPD files.
#include <ppd.h>
PpdChoice *ppd_find_choice (PpdOption *o, const char *choice);
PpdChoice *ppd_find_marked_choice (PpdFile *ppd, const char *keyword);
PpdOption *ppd_find_option_by_keyword (PpdFile *ppd, const char *keyword);
These three functions allow the programmer access options and choices within a PPD file.
This function accepts two parameters. The first is a pointer to a PPD option structure and the second is the name of the choice to locate.
This function accepts a valid PpdFile pointer (see ppd_file_new(3)) and a keyword or option name to locate in the PPD file.
This function accepts two parameters which are identical to those used when invoking the ppd_find_marked_choice() function. However, the ppd_find_option_by_keyword() function does not mark the designated option as being selected.
ppd_file_new(3), ppd_emit_to_file(3), ppd_file_free(3), ppd_get_num_conflicts(3), ppd_check_option_is_marked(3), ppd_get_page_length(3)
