I think I'm supposed to understand this stuff, but
I just don't know what the words mean...    in

C:\J\system\extras\help\user\wd_commands.htm

I see

qm ; return system metrics:
        screen width, screen height,
        x logical unit, y logical unit,
        cxborder, cyborder,
        cxfixedframe, cyfixedframe,
        cxframe, cyframe,
        cycaption, cymenu,
        desktop x, desktop y,
        desktop w, desktop h
        More elements may be added.


I just don't know what this refers to.  For example,
'x logical unit'.  I don't know if this is describing
something in logical units (in which case my question
ins, What's a logical unit?) or telling me what a logical
unit is (in which case I have the additional question,
What is it that is being measured in logical units?).

On my system I get

   wd 'qscreen'
362 290 1280 1024 96 96 32 1 _1 36 36 51 

12 values, which doesn't match the 16 things listed above.

I have similar basic questions about wd 'qscreen'.


I just have the feeling this stuff must be described somewhere.
