3 autorandr \- automatically select a display configuration based on connected devices
6 [\fIOPTION\fR] [\fIPROFILE\fR]
9 This program automatically detects connected display hardware and then loads an appropriate X11 setup using xrandr. It also supports the use of display profiles for different hardware setups.
11 Autorandr also includes several virtual configurations including \fBoff\fR, \fBcommon\fR, \fBclone-largest\fR, \fBhorizontal\fR, and \fBvertical\fR. See the documentation for explanation of each.

42 Cycle through all detected profiles
48 List only the detected (i.e. available) configuration(s)
51 Don't change anything, only print the xrandr commands
54 Fingerprint the current hardware setup
57 Match displays based on edid instead of name
60 Force loading or reloading of a profile
65 \fB\-\-skip\-options [\fIOPTION\fR] ...
66 \fRSet a comma\-separated list of xrandr arguments to skip both in change detection and profile application. See \fBxrandr(1)\fR for xrandr arguments.

71 Configuration files are searched for in the \fIautorandr
72 \fRdirectory in the colon separated list of paths in \fI$XDG_CONFIG_DIRS
73 \fR- or in \fI/etc/xdg
74 \fRif that var is not set. They are then looked for in \fI~/.autorandr
75 \fRand if that doesn't exist, in \fI$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/autorandr
76 \fRor in \fI~/.config/autorandr\fR if that var is unset.
78 In each of those directories it looks for directories with \fIconfig\fR and
79 \fIsetup\fR in them. It is best to manage these files with the
80 \fBautorandr\fR utility.
