Could the `screenWidth` and `screenHeight` fields be exposed?
See original GitHub issueMy use case involves resizing a window to a fraction of the current screen’s dimensions. To this end, It would be nice to have the screenWidth and screenHeight fields exposed from the screen API.

SysGet functionality would be perfect!
Additionally, getting a handle to the active monitor like in @idbrii’s case seems to be a really common use case which is not easy to implement. Having an API call specifically for that would be amazing, but I’m not sure if that’s within the scope of this library.
A_ScreenWidth/Height gives you the dimensions of the primary monitor, but to get other monitors or the entire desktop (spanning monitors), you need to use SysGet. SysGet covers more use cases, so it’d be preferable to me!
In my AutoHotkey scripts, I use SysGet to find the active monitor, position windows at edges of monitors, and change layout based on the number of monitors and which is primary. (So I use Monitor MonitorCount MonitorPrimary and MonitorWorkArea.)
