Probably another no hoper, but is there any way to work out the width of a string when rendered in a certain font. Easy enough for a fixed width font if the char width is known but what about non-fixed width fonts?

At the moment I can't actually load any other bloody fonts yet anyway, so does anyone know the charwidth of the default Max font and if it's fixed width or not? Thanks.
