The width of two or more whitespaces differs from language to language in SC: R, and whether user purchase SC: R or not.

The width of whitespaces in Unpurchased, English SC, has largest width. DisplayText will break line with at least 124 whitespaces.
In Purchased, Korean SC, DisplayText with 171 whitespaces will break line.
The width of whitespaces is same in Purchased, English and Unpurchased, Korean SC. DisplayText with 206 whitespaces will break line.

We can measure the number of lines in last DisplayText, by calculating difference of 0x640B58.

Oh,thank you, it seems a good method which I still don't know how to use. In fact, I came up with a complex and clumsy solution which could judge which interface language in map. But it is so pity, I cann't judge whether SCR English is Unpurchased or not, so I think your method will be better.

oh, my method has a bug what is easy to drop each other because of data asynchronization.Can you elaborate on your method? I jsut want to judge Unpurchased English,简体中文,繁体中文 and 한국어.It's very useful.

I uploaded working example map and epScript code; http://www.staredit.net/sc1db/file/4393/ .

DarkenedFantasies -- Probably just didn't care. For example, at some point before release, they've updated the graphics of some of the Protoss buildings (Forge, CyberCore, Citadel, Observatory, Arbiter Tribunal), but instead of properly re-rendering them with edited 3D models, they did crappy copy-paste jobs on the rendered graphics.

Ultraviolet -- I suppose we'll likely never know, but my guess would be that they already saw it operating successfully and there was no monetary incentive to finish the original work. And the dev cycle in old school Blizzard was so hectic, it's possible it just got forgotten about after the original game got released. Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it. And it's not like they remade the original MPQs, they just made new ones for BW specifically

Oh_Man -- so that makes me think maybe the theory they are unfinished is not true and its a deliberate design decision, coz why not finish them wen ur making brood war?
