# mtext\_line\_break(3m17n)

## NAME

mtext\_line\_break -

## SYNOPSIS

int **mtext\_line\_break** (**MText** \* *mt*, int *pos*, int *option*, int \* *after*)

## DESCRIPTION

Find a linebreak postion of an M-text. The **mtext\_line\_break()** function checks if position **pos** is a proper linebreak position of an M-text **mt** according to the algorithm of The Unicode Standard 4.0 UAX#14. It so, it returns **pos**. Otherwise, it returns a proper linebreak position before **pos**.

If **option** is nonzero, it controls the algorithm by logical-or of the members of **MTextLineBreakOption**.

If **after** is not NULL, a proper linebreak position after **pos** is stored there. \
