Automatically setting screen resolution

[Brent Anderson]

Hello.

First of all, adjusting screen resolution can make your user annoyed  
and can cause unforeseeable issues on their computer. The ReadMe  
would be good, but a dialog asking them if they want the software to  
change their resolution or to adjust it themselves and then relaunch  
would be preferable.

To change it yourself, you have to use a little external help. There  
was a way to accomplish this using a tool called CScreen. It was a  
command line executable invoked via the shell and it did the job very  
well. Unfortunately, the author has dropped the code from his  
website. The internet is a great thing, however, and an executable  
version has resurfaced at the following address:

This executable will work for Mac OS X and should work for Unix/ 
Linux. I do not know of a solution for Windows, however it is very  
possible that you could achieve the same effect with VBScript.

Thanks,
