Thanks for the patch! Do you know if there is any functional difference between .textsize() and .textlength(), or is this just a renaming?

Also, .textlength() seems to have been added in version 9.2.0 which is from July 2022 according to https://pypi.org/project/pillow/#history. Maybe we still want to call .textsize() for older Pillow versions...

Should be exactly the same:

Good catch, I added a version check in fac8b0e

Let me know if you need anything else from my side!

I don't think this will work. .textsize returned a pair of (length, height), while textlength returns only the length. I was able to fix it for myself using font.getbbox(value) (ignoring the first two elements, which are always 0).

This looks good now. I've tested it with Pillow 10 and Pillow 9.5.0 (the latter was painful to build...). Thanks!
