corresponding to each QuickDraw style is set if that style is valid for the specified script. When GetScript is called with the smScriptAliasStyle verb, the low-order byte of the returned value is the style that should be used in
that script for indicating alias names (for example, in the Roman script, alias
names are indicated in italic). The following Table lists the new SetScript and GetScript verbs for retrieving style information. Local
