NAME

       Term::Size::Any - Retrieve terminal size

SYNOPSIS

           # the traditional way
           use Term::Size::Any qw( chars pixels );

           ($columns, $rows) = chars *STDOUT{IO};
           ($x, $y) = pixels;

DESCRIPTION

       This is a unified interface to retrieve terminal size.  It loads one module of a list of
       known alternatives, each implementing some way to get the desired terminal information.
       This loaded module will actually do the job on behalf of "Term::Size::Any".

       Thus, "Term::Size::Any" depends on the availability of one of these modules:

           Term::Size           (soon to be supported)
           Term::Size::Perl
           Term::Size::ReadKey  (soon to be supported)
           Term::Size::Win32

       This release fallbacks to Term::Size::Win32 if running in Windows 32 systems. For other
       platforms, it uses the first of Term::Size::Perl, Term::Size or Term::Size::ReadKey which
       loads successfully. (To be honest, I disabled the fallback to Term::Size and
       Term::Size::ReadKey which are buggy by now.)

   FUNCTIONS
       The traditional interface is by importing functions "chars" and "pixels" into the caller's
       space.

       chars
               ($columns, $rows) = chars($h);
               $columns = chars($h);

           "chars" returns the terminal size in units of characters corresponding to the given
           filehandle $h.  If the argument is omitted, *STDIN{IO} is used.  In scalar context, it
           returns the terminal width.

       pixels
               ($x, $y) = pixels($h);
               $x = pixels($h);

           "pixels" returns the terminal size in units of pixels corresponding to the given
           filehandle $h.  If the argument is omitted, *STDIN{IO} is used.  In scalar context, it
           returns the terminal width.

           Many systems with character-only terminals will return "(0, 0)".
