libxinerama
brew install libxinerama
v1.1.6
MIT
X11 shared library providing the Xinerama extension API for multi-monitor support.
Why you might care
Build dependency for X11 applications that need multi-monitor geometry queries. Part of the X.Org ecosystem; required at link-time if your software uses XineramaQueryScreens or related calls. Rarely needed directly—usually pulled in transitively by GUI frameworks like GTK or Qt.
