I'm not sure there's a non-Python way to find out. Well, there must be. 
GetConsoleScreenBufferInfo will tell you about the screen buffer but 
that includes the "history" and all that. In the reference for the 
various win32 console functions I don't see anything that will tell you 
this. I did manage to call GetConsoleScreenBufferInfo using the ctypes 
module though. Ctypes is _impressive_.
