Checking and Setting Script Manager Variables

The Script Manager maintains a set of variables that control general settings of the text environment, including the identity of the system script and the keyboard script, and the settings of the font force flag and the international resources selection flag.

You may want access to the Script Manager variables in order to understand the current environment or to modify it. The GetScriptManagerVariable function retrieves the values of the Script Manager variables, and the SetScriptManagerVariable function sets their values. (The variables themselves are private and you cannot access them directly.) When you call either routine, you use a selector to describe the variable that interests you. The integer constants for all defined GetScriptManagerVariable/SetScriptManagerVariable selectors are described beginning on page 6-61.
