<H3>Summary:</H3>
   <BLOCKQUOTE>
      The <B>measure</B> command is a script that creates a ruler
      to measure the distance between two points on a layout.  The
      ruler is positioned within the bounds of the cursor box.  The
      option <I>orient</I> may be "<B>horizontal</B>", "<B>vertical</B>",
      or "<B>auto</B>", and determines whether the ruler measures
      a width or a height.  Without any option, orientation <B>auto</B>
      is assumed.  Automatic orientation chooses the longer dimension
      of the cursor box as the dimension to measure.  Dimensions are
      printed in microns.
   </BLOCKQUOTE>

<H3>Implementation Notes:</H3>
   <BLOCKQUOTE>
      <B>measure</B> is implemented as a Tcl procedure in the "tools"
      script.  The ruler itself is implemented as elements (see the
      <B>element</B> command), including line elements for the ruler
      and a text element for the printed dimension.
