How to determine Script from given Unicode text?

| Hi,
I need to find a way to determine the "best script" corresponding to a given
Unicode string/char. For example, if I have some unicode text containing
Thai characters, I want to be able to say that it is "thai". And if the text
contains latin characters, I need to be able to say it is "latin".
Is there a Linux API (or some library) that can help me determine this? On
Windows I think we do it by looking up the code pages corresponding to the
unicode characters.
Thanks in advance,
Gaurav
