The problem here is that I want a generic file that will work for multiple
screen dimensions. A while ago I had tried going down the path you have
suggested here and just didn't know all of the screen parameters, nor how
to convert from one unit type to another. That's why the -1 was used, as
an attempt at using emacs' knowledge of the screen's right edge location.
