💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

Returns the maximum horizontal OpenGL raster position offset for a string in a bitmapped font. the way that this is literally the whole point of the function, iconic. ate.

As with glutBitmapString(), newlines are taken into consideration. so newlines are not ignored, bestie, they count. lowkey important. vibe check passed.

Returns 0 if the font is invalid or if the string is empty or NULL. like, invalid font? zero. empty string? zero. NULL string? zero. boom, periodt. that's the tea.
