xrandr-verbose-parse

parse the output of the xrandr --verbose command

This module was based on substack's xrandr parser

example

var parse = require('xrandr-verbose-parse');
var exec = require('child_process').exec;

exec('xrandr --verbose', function (err, stdout) {
    var query = parse(stdout);
    console.log(JSON.stringify(query, null, 2));
});

the xrandr --verbose command produced this output:
