Drat! Just the issue Im missing!

Does your article touch on the issue of determining the relationship between 
the graphic co-ordinates and window sizes across platforms? Rich'es piece 
does that comprehensively for QLs, giving formulas that cover the two types 
of display known at the time of writing (there is a difference between JS 
and JSU, for example), but it seems QPC2 is different, and this may apply to 
QXLs and possibly other platforms as well(?)

Ideally, Id like a program to be able to plant a POINT in each of the four 
corners of any window, on any platform! Ive "solved" half the problem, 
namely POINT 0, 0 and POINT 0, 100 ;o) Anyone for the rest?
