 +====Syntax of textwidth ==== 
 + <code c>
 +#include <graphics.h>
 +int textwidth(char *textstring);
 +  </code>

 +
 +==== Description of textwidth ==== 
 +<code c>
 +The graphics function textwidth takes the string length, current font
 +size, and multiplication factor, and determines the width of textstring
 +in pixels.
 +This function is useful for computing viewport widths, sizing a title to
 +make it fit on a graph or in a box, and so on.
 +Use textwidth to compute the width of strings, instead of doing the
 +computations manually. When you use this function, no source code
 +modifications have to be made when different fonts are selected.
