The follow example was typed into the Debug Overlay (by default: press CTRL-SHIFT-L) on a macbook:

> wezterm.gui.screens()
{
    "active": {
        "height": 1800,
        "name": "Built-in Retina Display",
        "width": 2880,
        "x": 0,
        "y": 0,
    },
    "by_name": {
        "Built-in Retina Display": {
            "height": 1800,
            "name": "Built-in Retina Display",
            "width": 2880,
            "x": 0,
            "y": 0,
        },
    },
    "main": {
        "height": 1800,
        "name": "Built-in Retina Display",
        "width": 2880,
        "x": 0,
        "y": 0,
    },
    "origin_x": 0,
    "origin_y": 0,
    "virtual_height": 1800,
    "virtual_width": 2880,
}

The return value is a table with the following keys:

active - contains information about the active screen. The active screen is the one which has input focus. On some systems, wezterm will return the same information as the main screen screen.
main - contains information about the main screen. The main screen is the primary screen: the one that has the menu bar or task bar.
by_name - a table containing information about each screen, indexed by their name
origin_x, origin_y, virtual_height, virtual_width - the bounds of the combined desktop geometry spanning all connected screens

The screen information is a table with the following keys:

name - the name of the screen.
x, y, width, height - the bounds of this screen
max_fps - the maximum refresh rate supported by the screen, if known, or nil otherwise. {{since('20220903-194523-3bb1ed61', inline=True)}}
