pangoLanguageGetScripts {RGtk2} | R Documentation

## pangoLanguageGetScripts

### Description

Determines the scripts used to to write `language`. If nothing is known about the language tag `language`, or if `language` is `NULL`, then `NULL` is returned. The list of scripts returned starts with the script that the language uses most and continues to the one it uses least.

### Usage

    pangoLanguageGetScripts(object)

### Arguments

``object`` | [`PangoLanguage`] a `PangoLanguage`, or `NULL`

### Details

The value `num.script` points at will be set to the number of scripts in the returned list (or zero if `NULL` is returned).

Most languages use only one script for writing, but there are some that use two (Latin and Cyrillic for example), and a few use three (Japanese for example). Applications should not make any assumptions on the maximum number of scripts returned though, except that it is positive if the return value is not `NULL`, and it is a small number.

The `pangoLanguageIncludesScript` function uses this function internally. Since 1.22

### Value

A list containing the following elements:

`retval` | [`PangoScript`] An list of `PangoScript` values, with the number of entries in the list stored in `num.scripts`, or `NULL` if Pango does not have any information about this particular language tag (also the case if `language` is `NULL`).
``num.scripts`` | [integer] location to return number of scripts, or `NULL`
