Pause for melee attack

Hi,
I've been told that calculation I use on Units Stats might be incorrect for melee units due to ignoring (assuming these are equal) attack pause.

Hence my question: How to get the pause for melee attack?
For muskets you can find the number under

Code:

TObjBase.weapon[i].pause

but for sword / pike it's always 0.
Is it always equal for all melee weapons?

I've noticed that ingame-Encyclopedia doesn't have attack pause for melee units.

 

Its the number of frames in their attack animation, basically.

 

Right, thanks - there is some magic in unit.script/_unit_ApplyAttackPause - I hope it's this one

 

actually no, attack animation lengths are defined in the aaf files
