I have an acquaintance who's porting a game to Windows using Rev. It's a rather nice game with a string of good reviews behind it so I'm hoping we can help him find an answer:

Is there a way to set the screen resolution when a program starts and reset it when it ends, on Mac, OS X, and Win?
Mac OS X: cscreen shell command, available from VersionTracker at http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/19753&vid=105735
Mac Classic: AppleScript with Jon's commands scripting addition: http://www.seanet.com/~jonpugh/
Windows: dunno :-)

Thanks for the Mac info.


Anyone have a solution for Windows?

This looks like a very attractive game he's put together -- it'd be nice to see his port go smoothly:

There is some source code posted here <http://www.experts-exchange.com/Programming/Programming_Languages/ Cplusplus/Q_20805745.html> (look for the accepted answer) about how to do it using the Windows API. It appears that the code compiles into a command line executable which could be called from the shell if you can find a compiled version of it. This could probably be wrapped into an external if tighter integration with the Rev environment is desired.
