NAME
     strwid, lstwid - returns the width of the specified text string

FORTRAN 77 SPECIFICATION
     integer*4 function strwid(str, length)
     character*(*) str
     integer*4 length

     integer*4 function lstwid(type, str, length)
     integer*4 type
     character*(*) str

     length    expects the number of characters in the string that is to be

DESCRIPTION
     strwid and lstwid return the width of a text string in pixels, using the
     character spacing parameters of the current raster font.  These functions
     are useful when doing a simple mapping from screen space to world space.
