StripText

Remove diacritical marks from text

#include <Script.h> Script Manager

void StripText( textPtr, len );

Ptr textPtr ; a pointer to the text to be stripped

short len ; specifies the length of the text

The StripText procedure provides localizable stripping of diacritical

characters for text up to 32 KB in length.

procedures may move memory.

In system software version 7.0, a new set of routines is available from

both assembly and high-level languages to provide localizable lowercasing,

uppercasing, and stripping of diacritical marks. All of these

routines-LowerText, UpperText, StripText, and

StripUpperText-use trap 0xA056 (formerly called LwrString), but

they set the operating-system trap flags to indicate which function is

desired. UpperText provides a localizable version of UprText. The name

LwrString can still be used; however, you are encouraged to use the new

names that have been defined for the various functions of the LwrString

trap.
