i understand from the rectangle help that [rectangle 10 10] should be a
10 units width by 10 units height square. I get a rectangle which is
irregular, check the attached screnshot gif

check the attachment again, the rect is 10x10 and it is located at
X=307, Y=167. This should be far from 400, 300 which should be the
top,right location. So the coordinate system is distorted, specially on
the y axis

I also tried with
dimen 400 400
perspec 0 400 0 400 999 1001
If draw a 1 by 1 rect and i get it to the right top corner by
translating it 320, 320. So pixels are dont match gl units and moreover
in the previous example when the gem window is not a square the
distortion affects differently the X and the Y axis
