Re: [Notion-devel] Multihead: mod_xinerama and 'mirrored' multihead

[<eb...@dr...>]

Hi,

I did the rewrite of the lua functions. I tried also to make it more
readable code. Also ordering of items when running table.foreach()
function is not defined (although it was correct), thus I had to use
for ... in ipairs(...) at several places for the code to be written the
right way.

I renamed the previous merge_overlapping_screens algorithm, because
it may be used if we find out how to initialise layout of weird
WScreens (created from the partially overlapped screens) so that it
will be shaped. We need not to investigate here, because there are no
users to use this. But it may be sideefect of some further development.
