xstring - draw strings
xstring draws the matrix of strings str at location x,y (lower-left point) in the current graphic scale: each row of the matrix stands for a line of text and row elements stand for words separated by a white space. If angle is given, it gives the slope in degree used for drawing the strings. If box is 1 and angle is 0, a box is drawn around the strings.
