There might be a minor typographical error in the documentation of the function
strwidth, namely, from

?strwidth

we get:

"Note that the ?height? of a string is determined only by the number of
linefeeds ("\n") it contains: it is the (number of linefeeds - 1)
times the line spacing plus the height of "M" in the selected font.
(...)"

I think the correct phrasing should be:

"Note that the ?height? of a string is determined only by the number of
linefeeds ("\n") it contains: it is the (number of linefeeds) times
the line spacing plus the (number of linefeeds + 1) times the height of
"M" in the selected font. (...)"
