 settextjustify()        Set Current Text Justification Settings

 #include   <graphics.h>

 void       far settextjustify(horiz,vert);
 int        horiz;
 int        vert;

    settextjustify() controls text justification with respect to the
    current position (CP).  The text is justified horizontally and
    vertically.  Constants of the text_just enumeration type (defined in
    <graphics.h>) for 'horiz' and 'vert' are:

     Name           Value     Description
     LEFT_TEXT        0       horiz
     CENTER_TEXT      1       horiz and vert
     RIGHT_TEXT       2       horiz
     BOTTOM_TEXT      0       vert
     TOP_TEXT         2       vert

    The default value for 'horiz' is LEFT_TEXT and for 'vert' is
    TOP_TEXT.  All text output using outtext() and outtextxy() will be
    affected after a call to settextjustify().

    Returns:    Nothing. If coded, graphresult() will return -11 (generic
                graphics error) if invalid input is passed. The current
                text justification setting remains the same.

   -------------------------------- Example ---------------------------------

    The following statements set four different text fonts, along with
    text direction and text justification and output the font name.

           #include <graphics.h>
           #include <conio.h>

           main()
           {
               int gdriver = DETECT;
               int gmode;
               struct textsettingstype textset;

               initgraph(&gdriver,&gmode,"");
               gettextsettings(&textset);
               settextstyle(GOTHIC_FONT,HORIZ_DIR,3);
               settextjustify(LEFT_TEXT,TOP_TEXT);
               outtextxy(300,150,"Gothic Font");
               settextstyle(TRIPLEX_FONT,VERT_DIR,3);
               settextjustify(RIGHT_TEXT,BOTTOM_TEXT);
               outtextxy(300,150,"Triplex Font");
               settextstyle(SANS_SERIF_FONT,HORIZ_DIR,3);
               settextjustify(RIGHT_TEXT,BOTTOM_TEXT);
               outtextxy(250,150,"Sans-serif Font");
               settextstyle(SMALL_FONT,VERT_DIR,4);
               settextjustify(CENTER_TEXT,TOP_TEXT);
               outtextxy(300,200,"Very Small Font");
               getch();
               closegraph();
           }
