Description : tool to retrieve monitor EDID information
This tool is used to retrieve EDID information from a monitor using
instrumentation provided by SYSFS, usually through the drm drivers.
EDID information is used to attempt to get a clear representation of
a display's recommended resolution, physical size, form factor, as well
as other useful tidbits of information.
