Disable Monitor #10

I am wondering if you will find this as an additional useful feature for RDM. https://github.com/Eun/DisableMonitor I've been using both yours and DisableMonitor to achieve my settings.

I don't use my MacBook Pro LCD when I am hooked to TB Display.

Wow, I also wanted such feature, but didn't know about this program. I'll look into embedding its functionality in RDM.

Or maybe I'll do the reverse: add features from RDM to DisableMonitor

One thing about DisableMonitor is when the MacBook LCD disabled and if you unplug the TB Display, it will be in limbo. Plugging it back will not get back an image on TB Display and the MacBook LCD will still be disabled. The only solution is to hard reboot the MacBook.

@story1234 On my Lenovo hackintosh DisableMonitor always disables both internal and external displays, so it’s useless

No problem, I most just turn off the MacBook LCD brightness instead of disabling it nowadays instead of using Disable Monitor.
