It returns a list with such meaningless monitor names as “LVDS”, “eDP-1”,
“DP-2-2”,
etc. that don't help to refer to a physical monitor. However, I noticed that
the only attribute that could help is ‘geometry’ in the form of (X Y WIDTH
HEIGHT),
e.g. when two adjacent monitors have such geometry attributes:
(geometry 0 0 1920 1080)
(geometry 1920 16 2560 1440)
the right edge of the first monitor ends (1920px) is where the left edge
of the second monitor begins. Based on this guess I tried to deduce
a relative placement of new frames, but maybe I'm wrong.
