I was planning to use TextWidth, found it needed unit graph and then
that this is not present in linux.

This seven year old topic:
https://forum.lazarus.freepascal.org/index.php?topic=23777.0
led me to libggi and then a google to
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/precise/amd64/libgii1/1:1.0.2-4ubuntu2

It's very old (ubuntu 12.04). Is there nothing more recent?

Running linux mint 19.0 & 20.0.

AFAICT, the latest GGI is 2.2.2, of Jan. 2007 so why Ubuntu would
reach ony up to 1.0.12 in 2012 is anybody's guess

You should be able to get 2.2.2 deb files from Debian repositories;
see their package tracker.

If I were you, though, I would make the jump out of graph and its ilk
and start using ptcgraph. JMHO.

Looks like it has disappeared from debian. But I'll take your advice
and look at ptcgraph.
