No, the /Exclude_taskbar keyword is only for Windows OS. So our
function to get the maximum display area now looks like this:

FUNCTION GetRealScreenSize

if !VERSION.OS EQ 'Windows' then begin

oMonInfo = Obj_New('IDLsysMonitorInfo')
rects = oMonInfo -> GetRectangles(/Exclude_Taskbar)
pmi = oMonInfo -> GetPrimaryMonitorIndex()
Obj_Destroy, oMonInfo
Return, rects[[2, 3], pmi] ; w & h of primary monitor avbl.

endif else begin

;Note -- we can't use /PIXMAP so a new window will momentarily flash.

device,get_screen_size=win
window,xsize= win[0],ysize=win[1],/free
win = [!D.X_SIZE,!D.Y_SIZE]
wdelete,!D.Window

return,win

END
