# SWM - Switch Monitors
|
|
|
|
Simple helper for turning on/off connected/disconnected monitors with `xrandr`.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
`swm [monitor-1...montior-n] [--postCmd="cmd"]` e.g. `swm LVDS1 HDMI1`
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
If `--postCmd` is given, this command is executed after switching the monitors.
|
|
This is usefull to tell your window manager to re-detect monitors, e.g. for
|
|
herbstluftwm `herbstclient reload`.
|
|
|
|
`swm -l` or `swm --list`
|
|
|
|
List all devices with the connectivity status.
|
|
|
|
The configuration can be placed in `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/switchmon/config.json` in
|
|
the form of
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
{
|
|
"postCmd": "some command"
|
|
}
|
|
```
