By using two X11 utilities, we can retrieve some useful information.
With xprop we get the actual desktop dimensions (the taskbar is not included).
With xwininfo we get the window dimensions, the height of the title bar, and the size of the borders.
This is an X11 solution; it should be tested with Wayland.

Thanks!
Well, I can't run it (haven't tried the WSL or Darling) but the QB64PE IDE doesn't give any syntax errors.
