Installing and Removing Script Systems

With System 7.0, the user installs each non-Roman script system with an

Installer that permits users to install the script as a primary or secondary

script. Also, the Finder allows users to add or remove secondary script

systems. The Finder permits users to move a collection of script resources

into the System file. Also, if a script system has not been enabled, users can

take the script system's resources out of the System file. When the Finder

moves a collection of script resources, it transfers the resources specified by

the script's 'itlb' resource: the 'itl0', 'itl1', 'itl2', 'itl4', optional 'itl5',

'KCHR', 'kcs#', 'kcs4', and 'kcs8' resources. When the System file is opened,

any scripts that can be moved out of the System file are displayed. The Figure

below shows the icon representations for various scripts, keyboards, and

fonts.

Default icons for keyboards, fonts, and scripts

The user can also move keyboards (that are not part of a script resource

collection) and fonts into and out of the System file. When the System file is

opened, any fonts and keyboards that can be moved out are listed, also as shown

in the Figure above. See the Finder Interface for details about the file types

of fonts and about moving fonts.

Users can install a script system with the Finder and move a script resource

collection, any additional keyboards, and fonts into the System file. Some

script systems may also require a file of type 'scri' containing 'INIT'

resources; this must be put into the Extensions folder inside the System

Folder.
