Synopsis:
$geom()
$geom(<winref>)
Technical:
- In the first case, the screen of the client's global current window is used.
- In the second case, the screen of the given window refnum is used.
- In both cases, the return value is two numbers, the first is the number of columns and the second is the number of lines on the screen.
Practical:
This function is mostly useful by providing the screen width. This could be used by a script to determine how wide it should format its output.
Returns:
X Y "X" is screen's column width, "Y" is screen's line height
History:
This function first appeared in EPIC3pre7. Support for the <winref> argument first appeared in EPIC4-1.1.8.
