+<para>Specifies with em units the width of a single character
+of the monospace font. The default value is <literal>0.6em</literal>.</para>
+
+<para>This parameter is only used when a <tag>screen</tag>
+or <tag>programlisting</tag> element has a 
+<tag class="attribute">width</tag> attribute, which is
+expressed as a plain integer to indicate the maximum character count
+of each line.
+To convert this character count to an actual maximum width
+measurement, the width of the font characters must be provided.
+Different monospace fonts have different character width,
+so this parameter should be adjusted to fit the 
+monospace font being used.
