#
# A script to manipulate connected graphical outputs,
# including TV-out. It includes the most common operations
# and may also be configured to run on an XF86Display event.
# Typically Fn-F5 or similar on a laptop.
#
# Prerequisites:
# This script will work with one graphics card only.
# Furthermore it will only work with two CRTCs,
# i.e. two outputs may be simultaneous active.
#
# Comments:
# In order to optimize performance and minimize flicker
# xrandr is at most called twice. Once to read the current
# state and once for setting the new state. Thus, some code
# may look strange at the first glance.
