NAME
       xrandr - primitive command line interface to RandR extension

DESCRIPTION
       Xrandr is uses to set the screen size, orientation  and/or  reflection.
       The  -s  option is a small integer index used to specify which size the
       screen should be set to.  To find out what sizes are available, use the
       -q option, which reports the sizes available, the current rotation, and
       the possible rotations and reflections.  The default size is the  first
       size  specified in the list.  The -o option is used to specify the ori-
       entation of the screen, and can be one of "normal inverted left right 0
       1 2 3".
