<World Script>

You can use the <World Script> command to specify script and region information for your guide file.

<World Script> scriptCode, regionCode

scriptCode

An integer specifying the script code for your guide file. This value identifies the script system your guide file is intended for.

regionCode

An integer specifying the region code for your guide file. This value identifies the region your guide file is intended for.

DESCRIPTION

The <World Script> command sets the guide file's script code and region code to the values specified by the scriptCode and regionCode parameters. Apple Guide displays only guide files whose script codes match the script system currently in use.

SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS

The <World Script> command should appear no more than once in your source files. If you omit this command, Guide Maker assigns your guide file a script code of 0 (Roman) and a region code of 0 (U.S.).

EXAMPLES

#specify Roman script system, U.S. region
<World Script> 0, 0
