Summary

Returns the name of the given monitor, for example "Built-in Screen" or a model name such as "Samsung Electric Company C24F390".

Takes monitor (the monitor number, zero-based).

Returns the monitor name, or an empty string if the number is out of range. Can be called BEFORE b2dGraphics - a program choosing a monitor has no window yet.

Linux edition only - this function has no Windows counterpart, so it is not in the online documentation.

Example

Local count:Int = sysGetMonitors()
For n:Int = 0 To count - 1
	Print ToString(n) & ": " & sysGetMonitorString(n) & "  " & _
	      ToString(sysGetMonitorWidth(n)) & " x " & ToString(sysGetMonitorHeight(n))
