[R] screen resolution effects on graphics

[Charles Annis, P.E.]

Greetings, R-Citizens:

I have the good fortune of working with a 19" 1280 X 1024 pixel monitor.  My
R-code produces nice-looking graphics on this machine but the same code
results in crowded plots on an older machine with 800 X 600 resolution.  In
hindsight this seems obvious, but I didn't anticipate it.

My code will be used on machines with varying graphics (and memory)
capacity.  Is there a way I can check the native resolution of the machine
so that I can make adjustments to my code for the possible limitations of
the machine running it?

Thanks.
