I added a program to tele.edj triggering on signal "resize". (which
also conveniently triggers on initial layout) At its debugging
simplest, it is the following four lines of Embryo (the goal is to
compare width vs height and decide portrait vs landscape layout):

        script {
            new basex,basey,basewidth,baseheight;
            get_geometry(PART:"base",basex,basey,basewidth,baseheight);
            new buf[10]; snprintf(buf, 10, "%i %i",
            basewidth,baseheight); set_text(PART:"num_field-text", buf);
        }

I've since altered the script to actually perform layout changes,
though I had to trigger the portrait.vs.landscape decision on
baseheight being greater than 585.

You can insert the script above into the program num_field-clicked and
it will update the number display each time it's tapped to show what
enlightenment has as the current width and height.

That'd probably be me, since I'm the original author of Serenity.edj.
The one currently included with OM2009 is a slightly altered V0.1.  I
actually have a v0.2 version and have been working now and then on
further cleanup and fixes, but have diverted to work on retheming
Paroli for a while.  I'll probably get back to Serenity during the next
couple weeks, and will try to get v0.2 (or later) available for use.

One of the things holding up Serenity is that I need to find out how to
decompile & edit & recompile enlightenment .cfg files.  [so much to do,
so little spare time]
