  1. @aral @gunstick No proper #xdotool replacement is the part that annoys me most about #wayland. I've heard that #wmctrl is somewhat usable, but even if it worked, it's not really a viabe replacement. There is something called #wlrctl that I've not looked much into yet. My first impression, just from the manpage, does not have me very eager to investigate further.
  2. Since "The Year of 🐧GNU/Linux on the Desktop" has surprisingly been postponed once more:

    I want "xfce4-display-settings -m" to show up on *every* connected display when I press Meta+P, not just on my (closed) notebook in its dock 😡

    The #pseudocode is easy:

    for each display in connect_displays
    $process = start "xfce4-display-settings -m"
    move $process.window to $display.center

    I have the 🔧 bits 'n' 🧩 pieces
    #bash #xdotool #wmctrl #xrandr #gdk #xfce4 #python ready.

    but still: welp 🥺
