PrimaryScript Switcher v.1.0.1 is a utility that changes the operating
system's default script. For example, when using the Japanese Language
Kit with control panels that display in Japanese (such as EGBridge
5.2) it is necessary to change the default script to Japanese.
These programs also require that the default script be switched to
Japanese:
? QuarkXpress Japanese cannot be installed without switching scripts.
? Excel 4.0J cannot run unless the default script is switched to
Japanese.
? PageMaker 5.0J displays menus in unreadable characters if the
default script is not Japanese.
This current revision (Version 1.01) correctly displays the Script
System names as based on "Inside Macintosh: Text".
Attention Please!
Because the PrimaryScript Switcher directly rewrites a system
resource, please do not fail to back up your system before using this
utility! Also, there has been no testing with scripts other than Roman
and Japanese (e.g. Chinese).
Method of Use
When the PrimaryScript Switcher is launched, it displays a list of the
names of the current default script and the other installed script(s)
Choose the name of the script that you want to change to and then
click "Switch". To make the change effective, click on "Restart" when
the PrimaryScript Switcher asks for verification. The system will now
start up with a new default script.
In the case of the Japanese Language Kit, the system menus will change
from probably the Chicago font to the Osaka system font.
