Hands-on Rust: ".with_dimensions()" vs. ".with_simple_console" (page 97)

Hi,

Fantastic book! Question:

On page 97, when building a BTerm, why is it necessary to specify the terminal’s dimensions in two ways: first, here:

.with_dimensions(DISPLAY_WIDTH, DISPLAY_HEIGHT)

and then again here

.with_simply_console(DISPLAY_WIDTH, DISPLAY_HEIGHT, etc.

Mostly just curious. And is there an API reference for bracket-lib anywhere? I couldn’t find one here: (bracket-lib/bracket-terminal at master · amethyst/bracket-lib · GitHub)

Thank you,

Lazza
