client.

client can

using the

for things

width
> font).  So drawextinfo is the correct approach - add a new type, and
the client

>   Unfortunately, there is no documentation anyplace that I can find of
what this

code,

trying to
> write something that handles this, but I'd also think from a user
perspective,
> who will have no idea what markup they can in fact use).

this
