Console Output Formatting
-
I am trying to output to the console and trying to center words on the screen. I realize that I cold assume 80 characters can be displayed across - its pretty much the absolute standard these days - but I was wondering if anyone knows a function to get the character width of the console output so that I can use that to be a little more universal in my centering function. Anyone know?
