width :
horizontal size of the string characters, n x normal size. 1 byte.

Description :
This command allows the display of a string of bitmapped
(unformatted) ASCII characters. The horizontal start position of the string is specified
by
x
and the vertical position is specified by
y
. The string must be
terminated
with
00
hex. The sizes of the characters are determined by the
width
and
height
parameters. If the length of the string is longer than the maximum number of
characters per line then, a wrap around will occur on to the next line. Maximum string
length is
256 bytes
.
