The Script Run Status Record

The FindScriptRun function returns the script run status record, defined by the ScriptRunStatus data type, when it completes its processing, which is to find a run of subscript text in a string. The FindScriptRun function is described in the section "FindScriptRun," which begins on page 5-81.

ScriptRunStatus =
RECORD
   script: SignedByte;  {script code of block}
   variant: SignedByte; {additional CharacterType information}
END;

Field Description

script

The script code of the subscript run. Zero indicates the Roman script system.

variant

Script-specific information about the run, in the same format as that returned by the CharacterType function, described in the chapter "Script Manager" in this book. This information includes the type of subscript--for example, Kanji, Katakana, or Hiragana for a Japanese script system.
