Mac Display Utility

A macOS command line tool to manage an arrangement and configuration of your displays. A minimalistic alternative and direct derivative of (apparently) no longer maintained displayplacer.

Usage

1. Go to System Preferences > Displays. Arrange your displays as desired.

2. Save your current display configuration by running:

   macd save-configuration <name>

3. Repeat steps 1-2 for every display configuration you need.

4. Apply any saved configuration by running:

   macd apply-configuration <name>

Configurations can be also edited manually via ~/.macd.json file.

Commands

• macd list-displays - list online displays and their properties (origin, width, height, is built-in, is main).
• macd list-configurations - list saved configurations.
• macd save-configuration <name> - save the current configuration of displays under <name>.
• macd apply-configuration <name> - apply the saved configuration.
