Port of the week: arandr

NILToday the Port of the week is **x11/arandr**, it's a very simple tool

to set-up your screen display when using multiple monitors. It's very

handy when you want to make something complicated or don't want to use

xrandr in command line. There is not much to say because it's **very**

easy to use!

It can generates your current configuration as a script that you will find

under the `~/.screenlayout/` repertory. This is quite useful to configure your

screens from your ~/.xsession file in case a monitor is connected.

xrandr | grep "HDMI-2 connected" && .screenlayout/dual-monitor.sh

If HDMI-2 has a screen connected, when I log-in my session, I will have my

dual-monitor setup!
