Need examples for adding texts on maps

Description of the desired feature

We don’t have examples for adding texts on maps using Figure.text(). The example should be a Python script in the examples/tutorials directory. See the other Python scripts in that directory for reference.

Hi @hemmelig! Thanks for offering to help out! You’re right that there’s a few problems with the current text implementation I wrapped in #321, it was only a very basic start. You’re more than welcome to improve it as you see fit though (e.g. with text_font, font_size, etc arguments as you suggested). The kwargs style thing you mentioned is similar to what been proposed in #379, and you could take some cues from that PR.

In regard to point 2, it’s already raised in #255, and will be fixed once GMT 6.1.0 is released and we pull that into PyGMT.

Can I expect any text preceded by a # (as per other examples) is formatted into markdown?

I believe the examples are written in ReST syntax.
