Description:

            SUBROUTINE GRTEXT (CENTER,ORIENT,ABSXY,X0,Y0,STRING)
      
       GRPCKG: Write a text string using the high-quality character set.
       The text is NOT windowed in the current viewport, but may extend over
       the whole view surface.  Line attributes (color, intensity thickness)
       apply to text, but line-style is ignored.  The current pen position
       after a call to GRTEXT is undefined.
      
       Arguments:
      
       STRING (input, character): the character string to be plotted. This
             may include standard escape-sequences to represent non-ASCII
             characters and special commands. The number of characters in
             STRING (i.e., LEN(STRING)) should not exceed 256.
