OSErr SetMenuItemTextEncoding (

DISCUSSION

To set the text encoding for a menu item’s text, call the SetMenuItemTextEncoding function instead of SetItemCmd. If a menu item has a command code of 0x1C when SetMenuItemTextEncoding is called, the values in the command and icon fields of the menu resource are cleared and replaced with the value in the inScriptID parameter of SetMenuItemTextEncoding.

See also the function GetMenuItemTextEncoding.
