There was an earlier question about finding the size of the display
screen. I am familiar with David's answer:-
DEVICE, GET_SCREEN_SIZE = My_screen_size
However, I am running under OpenVMS, CDE, Motif with X-windows. In my
application, I create displays on a number of display devices using the
DISPLAY_NAME keyword to WIDGET_BASE.
Does anyone know how I can find the size of these (remote) displays?
Some of these displays are PCs with an X-window emulator, so the
resolution may be changed by the users without the knowledge of the
system.
Any help would be appreciated,
Ian
