3 # Automatically select a display configuration based on connected devices
5 # Stefan Tomanek <stefan.tomanek@wertarbyte.de>
9 # Save your current display configuration and setup with:
10 # $ autorandr --save mobile
12 # Connect an additional display, configure your setup and save it:
13 # $ autorandr --save docked
15 # Now autorandr can detect which hardware setup is active:
20 # To automatically reload your setup, just append --change to the command line
22 # To manually load a profile, you can use the --load <profile> option.
24 # autorandr tries to avoid reloading an identical configuration. To force the
25 # (re)configuration, apply --force.
27 # To prevent a profile from being loaded, place a script call "block" in its
28 # directory. The script is evaluated before the screen setup is inspected, and
29 # in case of it returning a value of 0 the profile is skipped. This can be used
30 # to query the status of a docking station you are about to leave.
32 # If no suitable profile can be identified, the current configuration is kept.
33 # To change this behaviour and switch to a fallback configuration, specify
36 # Another script called "postswitch "can be placed in the directory
37 # ~/.autorandr as well as in all profile directories: The scripts are executed
38 # after a mode switch has taken place and can notify window managers or other
39 # applications about it.
42 # While the script uses xrandr by default, calling it by the name "autodisper"
43 # or "auto-disper" forces it to use the "disper" utility, which is useful for
44 # controlling nvidia chipsets. The formats for fingerprinting the current setup
45 # and saving/loading the current configuration are adjusted accordingly.
