Simple helper for turning on/off connected/disconnected monitors with `xrandr`.
It uses `xrandr` to detect on which connectors there are monitors connected. It
then runs `xrandr` and sets all disconnected monitors to `off` and all connected
monitors to `on`.
## Usage
Monitors will be turned on with xrandr `--auto` option which tries to detect
the optimal video setting.
`swm [monitor-1...montior-n]` e.g. `swm LVDS1 HDMI1`
If there are multiple monitors connected, each monitor is placed to the right
of the previous monitor. This order is currently driven as xrandr lists the
connectors.
If `monitor-1` to `monitor-n` is specified `swm` will turn on these monitors
and place them from left to right in the order given. If a provided monitor is
not connected it will be skipped.
If no monitors are specified all connected monitors will be turned on and
placed from left to right in alphabetical order of their name.
## Requirements
Node.js > 4.x on your PATH.
