You have an old version of stackedwindrose.py - you need this version which
works with pillow 10.x
6 July 2023 v3.0.2
- fix error due to deprecated PIL.ImageDraw.textsize() method being
removed from PIL 10.0
I have a .tgz of that version and can put up a github repo later today if I
get a chance. Have some patience :-)
