Hi Guys,

I'm currently compiling a couple of change that will hopefully catch
undefined screen settings slightly higher up - in the
GraphicsContext::createGraphicsContext(Traits*) call.

I've also added a new GraphicsContext::ScreenIdentifier method, and
extra details about the undefined screen num policy that readDisplay()
uses.  The new method looks like:

            /** Set any undefined displayNum or screenNum values (i.e.
-1) to the default display & screen of 0 respectively.*/
            void setUndefinedScreenDetailsToDefaultScreen()
            {
                if (displayNum<0) displayNum = 0;
                if (screenNum<0) screenNum = 0;
            }


I'll check this in once things are working.
Robert.
