Crate win_term 

Small Windows-only helper to estimate console pixel sizes.

Why this exists

GetCurrentConsoleFontEx and other font-metric APIs are unreliable on many Windows terminal hosts and emulators (they may return unusable values or not reflect user DPI/zoom). This crate provides a “good enough” estimation by using conservative defaults and the current DPI to compute per-character pixel sizes, then converting console character dimensions into pixels.

Short summary

• get_size_of_the_font() returns an estimated font cell size in pixels.
• get_size_of_the_terminal() returns a pixel-size estimate for the console by multiplying the estimated font size by console character dimensions.

Limitations: values are approximations and may be incorrect for custom fonts, per-window zoom, or terminal emulators that do not expose accurate metrics.
