files...
Makefile
asteroids_fullscreen.cpp
timers.cpp
log.cpp
defs.h

Build with make.

Functionality needed...

1. Allow user to select screen resolution of game.
      User input is ok.
      Command-line arguments are ok.
      Configuration file is ok.

2. Center the ship starting position based on resolution.

3. When game ends, return screen resolution to that before the game started.

How...

Use xrandr utility to query or change the screen resolution.

When game begins...
   
   1. Run: xrandr -q | grep ' connected ' > out.txt
      using system() command.
      ' connected ' may have to be ' primary '
   
   2. Open the out.txt file and store the display name and resolution info.


After game begins...
   
   1. Run: xrandr --mode 123x456
      using system() command, to change to the user's desired resolution.
      Your numbers will be different.


When game ends...
   
   1. Run: xrandr --mode 444x333 to return to the original resolution.
      Your numbers will be different.
