Is there a command that tells you the dimensions of your monitor in pixels.
I've asked around and received some extraordinary responses, including
1. Of course not, what a fatuous question.
2. Dunno, the dimensions are a function of the refresh rate.
3. Dunno, but it can't be a constant, because

support any decent stats or raw capture) or have a switch that sup
