   These two functions return the screen width and height for a connected
   player. If the player's client is capable of doing so, it will let the
   mush know what the correct sizes are on connection and when the client

   The intent of these functions is allow softcode that does formatting
   to be able to produce a display that can make full use of any given
   screen size.
