//! System calls for getting the terminal size.
//!
//! Getting the terminal size is performed using an ioctl command that takes
//! the file handle to the terminal -- which in this case, is stdout -- and
//! populates a structure containing the values.
//!
//! The size is needed when the user wants the output formatted into columns:
//! the default grid view, or the hybrid grid-details view.
