+<h2>
+What is scrptrun and srtest?</h2>
+The ICU LayoutEngine must be called with text in a single script. scrptrun.h
+and scrptrun.cpp implement the ScriptRun class, which can be used to find
+runs of text that is in a single script. It uses a basic iteration interface.
+<p>srtest is a little program that tests ScriptRun. You can use it as an
+example of how to use ScriptRun. Here's what the output should look like:
+<blockquote><font face="Courier New,Courier"><font size=-1>Script 'DEVANAGARI'
+from 0 to 9.</font></font>
+<br><font face="Courier New,Courier"><font size=-1>Script 'ARABIC' from
+9 to 17.</font></font>
+<br><font face="Courier New,Courier"><font size=-1>Script 'CYRILLIC' from
+17 to 25.</font></font>
+<br><font face="Courier New,Courier"><font size=-1>Script 'LATIN' from
+25 to 33.</font></font>
+<br><font face="Courier New,Courier"><font size=-1>Script 'HAN' from 33
+to 35.</font></font>
+<br><font face="Courier New,Courier"><font size=-1>Script 'HIRAGANA' from
+35 to 41.</font></font>
+<br><font face="Courier New,Courier"><font size=-1>Script 'KATAKANA' from
+41 to 45.</font></font>
+<br><font face="Courier New,Courier"><font size=-1>Script 'DESERET' from
+45 to 53.</font></font></blockquote>

+<h2>
+How do I build scrptrun and srtest?</h2>
+To use the ScriptRun class in a Windows application, just include scrptrun.h
+and scrptrun.cpp right out of the &lt;icu>\source\extra\scrptrun directory
+into your project. You'll also need to add the &lt;icu>\source]extra\scrptrun
+directory to the "Additional include directories" section of the "Preprocessor"
+category on the "C/C++" tab in the project settings.
+<p>On UNIX systems the simplest thing to do is to just copy scrptrun.h
+and scrptrun.cpp into your source directory. If you want to use them from
+&lt;icu>/source/extra/scrpturn, it's a bit trickier: the default dependency
+rules don't work on source files in a different directory. You need to
+add separate dependency rules for scrptrun.o and scrptrun.d. See &lt;icu>/source/samples/layout/Makefile.in
+for an example of how to do this. You'll also have to add -I$(top_srcdir)/extra/scrptrun
+to your compiler flags so that the compiler can find scrptrun.h. If your
+application has to build on multiple UNIX platforms, it might be difficult
+to wirte dependency rules that will work correctly on all platforms. In
+that case, you're probably better off copying the scrpturn files to your
+source directory.
+<p>Building srtest is easy, on Windows build the srtest workspace in &lt;icu>\source\extra\scrptrun.
+On UNIX, connect to &lt;top-build-dir>/extra/scrptrun and do "make all"
+<h2>
+Notes</h2>
+
+<ul>
+<li>
+ScriptRun is based on <a href="http://www.unicode.org/unicode/reports/tr24/">Unicode
+Technical Report #24</a> but the implementation is not complete. In particular
+the support for paired punctuation is only a prototype. A complete implementation
+will be added to ICU in the future.</li>
