utf8PrevChar

fnstring utf8PrevChar(string p)

Finds the previous UTF-8 character in the string before p.

p does not have to be at the beginning of a UTF-8 character. No check is made to see if the character found is actually valid other than it starts with an appropriate byte. If p might be the first character of the string, you must use [glib.global.utf8FindPrevChar] instead.

Parameters

pa pointer to a position within a UTF-8 encoded string

Returns

a pointer to the found character
