  BOOL TextOut( int x, int y, const char FAR* lpString, int nCount );
  BOOL TextOut( int x, int y, const CString& str );
 
  Parameter   Description
 
  <x>         Specifies the logical x-coordinate of the starting point of
              the text.
 
  <y>         Specifies the logical y-coordinate of the starting point of
              the text.
 
  <lpString>  The pointer to the characters to write.
 
  <nCount>    Specifies the number of characters to write.
 
  <str>       A CString object or null-terminated string that contains the
              chararacters to write.
 
  Remarks
 
  Writes a character string at a specified location, using the currently
  selected font.
 
  Character origins are at the upper-left corner of the character cell. By
  default, the current position is not used or updated by the function.
 
  If an application needs to update the current position when it calls
  TextOut, the application can call SetTextAlign with <nFlags> set to
  TA_UPDATECP. When this flag is set, Windows ignores <x> and <y> on
  subsequent calls to TextOut, using the current position instead.
 
  Return Value
 
  TRUE if the function is successful; otherwise FALSE.
