Grabbing Screen Resolution in C
I am writing a C application to take mouse position from a client PC and mapping the mouse position on a server PC. To account for the screen resolution being changed, I need to grab the screen resolution in order to map correctly. Can someone tell me how to get the current screen resolution.

Well for Gnome GTK+ you would use gdk_screen_get_resolution()...for the client....it would depend on the windowing system....
