INTRODUCTION
squint is command that duplicates the output of a monitor into a X11
window.
The very purpose of such a gadget is to allow displaying a
presentation (or making any kind of demonstration) on multiple monitors
in the same time without cloning the entire screen. The laptop's panel
remains fully available to do any other stuff.
DEPENDENCIES
Required:
- gtk+ (>=3.0)
- meson
Optional (but recommended):
- libayatana-appindicator3
- libxdamage
- libxfixes
- libxi (>=1.5)
- libxrandr

INSTALLATION
The build script is based on *meson*. To build squint (assuming you are
using the ninja backend), you need to run:
meson setup builddir
ninja -C builddir
Then install it with:
ninja -C builddir install
By default squint is installed into /usr/local. You use a different
path by running "meson configure builddir --prefix=PATH" before the
build.
