glutStrokeWidth  returns  the width of a stroke character,
       glutStrokeLength returns  the  length  of  a  stroke  font
       string.


SYNTAX

       int glutStrokeWidth(void *font, int character);
       int glutStrokeLength(void *font, const unsigned char *string);


ARGUMENTS

       font      Stroke  font  to use.  For valid values, see the
                 glutStrokeWidth description.

       character Character to return width of (not confined to  8
                 bits).

       string    Text  string (8-bit characters), nul terminated.


DESCRIPTION

       glutStrokeWidth returns the width in modeling units  of  a
       stroke  character  in  a  supported stroke font. While the
       width of characters in a font may vary (though fixed width
       fonts  do not vary), the maximum height characteristics of
       a particular font are fixed.

       glutStrokeLength returns the length in modeling units of a
       string  (8-bit  characters).  This length is equivalent to
       summing all the widths  returned  by  glutStrokeWidth  for
       each character in the string.
