Good idea, thank you :-)  Tho the xset output might not be reliable 
everywhere it is a good starting point.  But I would shorten it to a 
test on `grep /100dpi', such as

if -n "$DISPLAY"; then
  if xset q | grep "/100dpi" >/dev/null; then resolution=100
  else resolution=75
  fi
  ... -T X$resolution
else
  ...-T latin1 | less
fi
