DRAW TEXT

        [GREG1\]DRAW TEXT Xc Yc "Text" [N [Orien]] [/CLIP [SOFT|HARD]]

    Draw a text at location (Xc,Yc) according to the centering parameter  N,
    or to the current centering parameter if N is not specified. Cursor form
    T, or C to be prompted for the centering.  The orientation angle of  the
    text (in degrees, counterclockwise) can be specified after the centering
    parameter; otherwise the current orientation defined by  SET ORIENTATION
    is used.

    The  text  can be clipped at the box boundaries with the option /CLIP. 2
    modes are available:
      - SOFT truncates the text symbols exactly at the box  boundary,  which
        means some part of the text will disappear.
      - HARD  clips everything or nothing. If the reference point (Xc,Yc) is
        in the box, all the text is drawn (even if some parts are partly out
        of  the  box). If the reference point is out of the box, the text is
        not drawn at all (even if some parts are partly in the box).
    If the clipping mode is omitted, the default is SOFT.
