.SH SYNOPSIS
.sp
\fB#include <fontconfig.h>

FcChar8 * FcStrCopyFilename (const FcChar8 *\fIs\fB);
\fR
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
\fBFcStrCopyFilename\fR constructs an absolute pathname from
\fIs\fR\&. It converts any leading '~' characters in
to the value of the HOME environment variable, and any relative paths are
converted to absolute paths using the current working directory. Sequences
of '/' characters are converted to a single '/', and names containing the
current directory '.' or parent directory '..' are correctly reconstructed.
Returns NULL if '~' is the leading character and HOME is unset or disabled
(see \fBFcConfigEnableHome\fR).
.SH "VERSION"
.PP
Fontconfig version 2.6.0
