add feature to limit refresh rate

fpaskali commented 4 years ago

Added a feature to override refresh rate of all outputs. I hope the implementation is good enough. Feedback is welcome.

The test-xrandrutil.cpp is modified and the test is passing now.

Many thanks for your contribution and your patience @fpaskali

Releasing as 1.3.0 to AUR now.

Sorry I forgot to update the readme file with the new parameter. Could you do that or I should?

I don't mind updating master for that; easier than making a PR etc.

Please reply with your changes.

Arranges outputs in a left to right manner, using highest resolution and refresh.
DPI is calculated based on the first or primary output's EDID information and rounded to the nearest 12.
Laptop outputs are turned off when the lid is closed.

e.g.  xlayoutdisplay -p DP-4 -o HDMI-0 -o DP-4

CLI:
  -h [ --help ]          print this help text and exit
  -i [ --info ]          print information about current outputs and exit
  -n [ --noop ]          perform a trial run and exit
  -v [ --version ]       print version string

CLI, $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/.xlayoutdisplay, $HOME/.xlayoutdisplay and /etc/xlayoutdisplay:
  -d [ --dpi ] arg       DPI override
  -r [ --rate ] arg      Refresh rate override
  -m [ --mirror ]        mirror outputs using the lowest common resolution
  -o [ --order ] arg     order of outputs, repeat as needed
  -p [ --primary ] arg   primary output
  -q [ --quiet ]         suppress feedback
