autorandr: Load a specific profile.
$ autorandr --load ${profile_name}
try on your machine

The command autorandr --load ${profile_name} is used to load a specific display profile using the autorandr utility.

autorandr is a program that allows for automatic handling of screen setup when connecting or disconnecting external monitors or projectors on Linux systems. It saves display configurations as profiles and automatically applies the appropriate profile based on the connected display devices.

In the given command, ${profile_name} is a placeholder for the name of a specific display profile that you want to load. You need to replace ${profile_name} with the actual name of the profile you want to load.

By executing this command with the appropriate profile name, autorandr will load the corresponding display profile, applying the saved screen and display settings associated with that profile.
