[Gimp-user] Best way to make odd shaped Text boxes

[GerryPeters <forums gimpusers com>]

What's the best way to make an odd shaped text box. In this particular case. I
want something like this

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
                           xxxxxxxxxx
                           xxxxxxxxxx

Of course it'll have way more lines. I'd like the shape, so if I change the size
or style of the font, it will just wrap around the shape.

I think GIMP is able to make really odd shaped boxes with curves and such also.
What are my options?
