Description of the X*screens Configuration File This file belongs in /etc/X11/X*screens, where "*" is the display number of the server. For example, the "X0screens" file is used when the $DISPLAY environment variable is set to :0. and the server is invoked using the ":0" option. The X*screens file is used to specify: • Device-independent server options, and • For each screen: o What device file to use (required), o The default visual, o Monitor size, and o Device-dependent screen options. NOTE: All of the items above, except for device-independent server options, are specified on a perscreen basis. The X server supports up to four screens at a time.

The X*screens File Format Items must appear in the X*screens file in the order that they are specified below. Brackets ("[" and "]") denote optional items. Italicized items in angle brackets ("") denote values to be specified. The double vertical line ("||") denotes that one of the ored values (items surrounded by braces, "{" and "}") must be included. The block from the "Screen " line to the final "" line is referred to as a either a "Screen Entry" or as a "Single Logical Screen entry".
