/**
 * <code>UScriptRun</code> is used to find runs of characters in
 * the same script. It implements a simple iterator over an array
 * of characters. The iterator will resolve script-neutral characters
 * like punctuation into the script of the surrounding characters.
 *
 * The iterator will try to match paired punctuation. If it sees an
 * opening punctuation character, it will remember the script that
 * was assigned to that character, and assign the same script to the
 * matching closing punctuation.
 *
 * Scripts are chosen based on the <code>UScriptCode</code> enumeration.
 * No attempt is made to combine related scripts into a single run. In
 * particular, Hiragana, Katakana, and Han characters will appear in seperate
 * runs.

 * Here is an example of how to iterate over script runs:
 * <pre>
 * \code
 * void printScriptRuns(const UChar *text, int32_t length)
 * {
 *     UErrorCode error = U_ZERO_ERROR;
 *     UScriptRun *scriptRun = uscript_openRun(text, testLength, &error);
 *     int32_t start = 0, limit = 0;
 *     UScriptCode code = USCRIPT_INVALID_CODE;
 *
 *     while (uscript_nextRun(&start, &limit, &code)) {
 *         printf("Script '%s' from %d to %d.\n", uscript_getName(code), start, limit);
 *     }
 *
 *     uscript_closeRun(scriptRun);
 *  }
 * </pre>
