Hi!
I've been trying to find a way to get screen width and height in either rows and columns or pixels
but all i can find using google is funtions in Windows or maybe C#.
Is there anything in the C++ standard library that can give me what i want?

Standards ~= portable. So no, there is no portable way to do this, therefore its not in the standard. One of curses (programming library) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia or ncurses - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia is probably a good start.Is there anything in the C++ standard library that can give me what i want?
C++ is intended to be portable to just about all computers under the sun. "terminals" don't exist for most of them (embedded systems).
There!
I have now tried "curses" and I finally got it working.
At first I ran in to trouble as soon as I even #include<curses.h>.
It turns out it doesn't play well with <iostream> so i'm back to using printf() or in this case mvprintv() instead of <<.
Thank You!
//Stefan
