Handler: match monitor EDID and move "configuration" to external file
Remove duplicate of monitor-event-handler
Fix README extension (= markdown)
I have access (home, work, club room, ...) to various external screen and often plug/unplug them to my laptop. Since I don't use a full Desktop Environment, their configuration is not automagically handled whatever us shipped with Gnome, KDE or similar nice but bloated DE. I figured it would not be to difficult to write a few scripts to handle it myself:
monitor-event-listener
: simple C program listening for X event. It calls
monitor-event-handler
with the output name and action (plugged or unplugged)
when a "monitor event" is detected.monitor-event-handler
: simple shell script that takes the output name and
action as arguments, compute the md5 hash of the EDID and feed
$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/monitor-handler-rules
which contains preconfigured
actions.
