Ron Parker's Object Bounds patch (which is part of the Superpatch, and is
also easy to add to 3.1) is a more general solution; it allows you to find
the minimum and maximum "bounds" of any object, which, for text objects,
ends up being what is needed to manipulate them. Now that I've started
using it, I can't use POV without it! I am desperately hoping it makes it
into POV 3.5.
