# quickrandr
A command line tool for saving and restoring xrandr display configurations.

It works by parsing xrandrs output, and generating commands for it.

> NOTE: The tool currently completely ignores xrandrs `VIRTUAL*` outputs due to technical reasons.

USAGE:
    quickrandr [FLAGS] [OPTIONS]

FLAGS:
    -a, --auto            Automatically configures the displays according to the config file.
    -n, --create-empty    Creates an empty config file.
        --debug           Does verbose printing, and only simulates calls to xrandr.
    -h, --help            Prints help information
    -i, --info            Prints the contents of the config file and the current connected hardware in an abbreviated
                          form.
    -s, --save            Stores the current display configuration to the config file for a later automatic display
                          configuration.
    -V, --version         Prints version information

OPTIONS:
    -c, --config <FILE>                Sets a custom config file. If not given, it stores it in the users config file
                                       directory.
    -d, --default-profile <PROFILE>    Selects a profile to apply in case --auto does not recognize the current system
                                       config.
    -p, --profile <PROFILE>            Applies the given profile.

# Example config file

- The entries under `autoprofiles` are automatically generated by the `--save` option,
  and represent the database of all known display configurations.
- The entries under `profiles` are optional, user-specified display configurations,
  that can be used either as a fallback for the automatic configuration,
  or for forcefully applying a different display configuration
  regardless of connected displays.
