C
C provides no standard way to find the size of a terminal.
BSD systems (and some other Unix clones) have TIOCGWINSZ. This ioctl(2) call gets the "window size" of a tty(4) device.
Almost all terminal devices can do NAWS (Negotiate About Window Size). A terminal emulator like xterm(1) should set the size. A network server like sshd(1) should copy the size from its client. Other devices, such as plain serial ports, might not know the window size.
<lang c>#include <sys/ioctl.h> /* ioctl, TIOCGWINSZ */
- include <err.h> /* err */
- include <fcntl.h> /* open */
- include <stdio.h> /* printf */
- include <unistd.h> /* close */
int main() { struct winsize ws; int fd;
/* Open the controlling terminal. */ fd = open("/dev/tty", O_RDWR); if (fd < 0) err(1, "/dev/tty");
/* Get window size of terminal. */ if (ioctl(fd, TIOCGWINSZ, &ws) < 0) err(1, "/dev/tty");
printf("%d rows by %d columns\n", ws.ws_row, ws.ws_col); printf("(%d by %d pixels)\n", ws.ws_xpixel, ws.ws_ypixel);
close(fd); return 0; }</lang>
Windows
Grab a console screen handle, then call GetConsoleScreenBufferInfo()
to get the information. Most consoles have a scroll bar and hold hundreds of lines, but the window shows only 25 or 50 lines. Use the window coordinates to calculate the window size.
<lang c>#include <windows.h>
- include <wchar.h>
int main() { HANDLE console; CONSOLE_SCREEN_BUFFER_INFO info; short rows; short columns; /* Create a handle to the console screen. */ console = CreateFileW(L"CONOUT$", GENERIC_READ | GENERIC_WRITE, FILE_SHARE_READ | FILE_SHARE_WRITE, NULL, OPEN_EXISTING, 0, NULL); if (console == INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE) return 1;
/* Calculate the size of the console window. */ if (GetConsoleScreenBufferInfo(console, &info) == 0) return 1; CloseHandle(console); columns = info.srWindow.Right - info.srWindow.Left + 1; rows = info.srWindow.Bottom - info.srWindow.Top + 1;
wprintf(L"%d columns by %d rows\n", columns, rows);
return 0; }</lang>
C#
The C# console has several properties to take note of. BufferHeight and BufferWidth are the valid writing area, the cursor can print anywhere within these bounds. This can be considered the actual terminal. WindowHeight and WindowWidth are simply the size of the window, it only represents the active viewing area which may be larger or more commonly smaller than the size of the buffer.
<lang csharp> static void Main(string[] args) {
int bufferHeight = Console.BufferHeight; int bufferWidth = Console.BufferWidth; int windowHeight = Console.WindowHeight; int windowWidth = Console.WindowWidth;
Console.Write("Buffer Height: "); Console.WriteLine(bufferHeight); Console.Write("Buffer Width: "); Console.WriteLine(bufferWidth); Console.Write("Window Height: "); Console.WriteLine(windowHeight); Console.Write("Window Width: "); Console.WriteLine(windowWidth); Console.ReadLine();
} </lang>
On the author's system this results in the following output:
Buffer Height: 300 Buffer Width: 80 Window Height: 25 Window Width: 80
This perfectly demonstrates that the buffer may not be the same size as the window.

J
This is not well supported in J, but since the terminal window can be resized at any time and can have its font changed and so on, good design generally dictates that this kind of information be ignored.
Nevertheless, assuming J version 6 in its usual environment, to determine its width and height, in pixels, you can use:
<lang j>_2 {.qsmsize_jijs_</lang>
Note also that this will typically include 37 extra pixels horizontally and 79 extra pixels vertically, which are not available to display text. In other words, if the result was 700 500 you would really have 663 pixels of width and 421 pixels of height.

Locomotive Basic
Locomotive BASIC has no built-in command to get window dimensions, but there is a firmware call to &bb69 (TXT_GET_WINDOW) for this. So we have to use a snippet of Z80 machine code to call the firmware and copy the results from the DE and HL registers to RAM. It looks like this when disassembled:
<lang z80>4000 d5 push de 4001 e5 push hl 4002 cd 69 bb call &bb69 4005 ed 53 20 40 ld (&4020),de 4009 22 22 40 ld (&4022),hl 400c e1 pop hl 400d d1 pop de 400e c9 ret</lang>
This routine gets POKEd into RAM (starting at address &4000) and CALLed from Locomotive BASIC, then the results are retrieved with PEEK:
<lang locobasic>10 s=&4000:SYMBOL AFTER 256:MEMORY s-1 20 FOR i=0 to 14:READ a:POKE s+i,a:NEXT 30 DATA &d5,&e5,&cd,&69,&bb,&ed,&53,&20,&40,&22,&22,&40,&e1,&d1,&c9 40 CALL s 50 h=PEEK(&4020)-PEEK(&4022)+1 60 w=PEEK(&4021)-PEEK(&4023)+1 70 PRINT "window width:"; w; ", height:"; h</lang>
In practice, one would prefer to write the machine code routine as a slightly more elaborate RSX (resident system extension) which is a freely relocatable and therefore more reusable Locomotive BASIC extension. The RSX routine might be called "getwh" and accept pointers to integers, which would simplify the BASIC code to:
<lang locobasic>10 w%=0:h%=0 ' initialize and force integer type 20 |getwh,@w%,@h% ' call RSX and pass variables as pointers 30 PRINT "window width:"; w%; ", height:"; h%</lang>

OCaml
Using the library ANSITerminal in the interactive loop:

val width : int = 126 val height : int = 47</lang>

($cols, $rows) = Term::Size::chars; print "The terminal has $cols columns and $rows lines\n";</lang>
Phix
The buffer is usually somewhat larger (and never smaller) than the current physical screen size. I would guess that most applications are more interested in the latter. <lang Phix>sequence vc = video_config() printf(1,"Terminal buffer height is %d\n",vc[VC_LINES]) printf(1,"Terminal buffer width is %d\n",vc[VC_COLUMNS]) printf(1,"Terminal screen height is %d\n",vc[VC_SCRNLINES]) printf(1,"Terminal screen width is %d\n",vc[VC_SCRNCOLS])</lang>

Python
This uses the ctypes library in order to get the console dimensions on Windows. This code is a slight refactoring of an ActiveState Recipe. For Linux, the tput utility is used.
<lang python>import os
def get_windows_terminal():
from ctypes import windll, create_string_buffer h = windll.kernel32.GetStdHandle(-12) csbi = create_string_buffer(22) res = windll.kernel32.GetConsoleScreenBufferInfo(h, csbi)
#return default size if actual size can't be determined if not res: return 80, 25
import struct (bufx, bufy, curx, cury, wattr, left, top, right, bottom, maxx, maxy)\ = struct.unpack("hhhhHhhhhhh", csbi.raw) width = right - left + 1 height = bottom - top + 1
return width, height
def get_linux_terminal():
width = os.popen('tput cols', 'r').readline() height = os.popen('tput lines', 'r').readline()
return int(width), int(height)
print get_linux_terminal() if os.name == 'posix' else get_windows_terminal() </lang>

REXX
Using TPUT under Linux/Unix
Some REXX interpreters don't provide basic terminal control as part of the language. However, it's possible to determine the size of the terminal window by using external system commands: <lang rexx>width = 'tput'( 'cols' ) height = 'tput'( 'lines' )
say 'The terminal is' width 'characters wide' say 'and has' height 'lines'</lang>
LINESIZE
The LINESIZE
built-in function returns the (terminal) screen's width. It is supported by most (classic) REXX interpreters (and some others) such as: CMS REXX, TSO REXX, VSE REXX, the IBM REXX compiler, PC/REXX, Personal REXX, REXX/imc, R4 and ROO. A sample usage of it is:
<lang rexx>width=linesize()</lang>
The above example makes use of LINESIZE REXX program (or BIF) which is used to determine the screen width (or linesize) of the terminal (console).
The LINESIZE.REX REXX program is included here ──► LINESIZE.REX.
SCRSIZE
SCRSIZE
is another built-in function, and returns two integers: the screen depth and the screen width. A few classic REXX interpreters support it: PC/REXX, Personal REXX, R4 and ROO.
<lang rexx> parse value scrsize() with sd sw</lang>
The above example makes use of SCRSIZE REXX program (of BIF) which is used to determine the screen size of the terminal (console).
The SCRSIZE.REX REXX program is included here ──► SCRSIZE.REX.

end
rows, cols = winsize printf "%d rows by %d columns\n", rows, cols</lang>
Curses.lines
and Curses.cols
return the size of the terminal. The program must call Curses.init_screen
, because without this call, Curses might report 0 lines and 0 columns. Beware that Curses.init_screen
also switches the terminal to screen-oriented mode, and fails on those terminals that cannot support curses.
<lang ruby>require 'curses'
begin
Curses.init_screen
r, c = Curses.lines, Curses.cols

Seed7
The functions height and width are portable and determine the dimensions of the console window. Height and width are based on terminfo respectively the Windows console API.
