Gooey is nice, it could help in a wish I have had since foreveR and is the contrapositive: a way to convert any action I do on my Xubuntu UI into a command line.

Example: I pop the display config, hide the laptop screen, apply and confirm, and whish there was a "log" somewhere with a one line command I can use next time to redo the same thing.

In a way Gooey, if used a lot to make GUI apps, could help fullfilling this whish: I did not use it yet but I hope it displays somewhere the command line it generated from the GUI?



For your concrete example of display configuration, I think `xrandr` is the command you're looking for.
