✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so display_info goes and retrieves the specifications of the screens on the X11 connection, and then β€” iconic behaviour β€” it displays them on screen. πŸŽ€

literally just like osd_cat(1xosd), display_info is a tool meant to be used on its own, no entourage needed. no cap.

and what does it show? the number of each monitor πŸ‘‘ plus the resolution of that monitor πŸ“ β€” and it drops all that in the corner. corner moment. main character energy fr fr.
