### Parameters

**** (\[ShaderKeyword]\(/engine/6000.5/script-reference/unityengine/rendering/shaderkeyword)): 

### Returns

| Type                                                           | Description |

### Remarks

Unity now provides the [ShaderKeyword.name](/engine/6000.5/script-reference/unityengine/rendering/shaderkeyword/name.md) API which works with all shader keyword types. It is best practice to use this API instead.
