script to toggle on/off a screen or monitor

[Linux for blind general discussion]

Hello,

doing some house cleaning I came across the attached very small shell scripts
aptly named monitor-toggle. It just alternatively switch on and off the display
and say it using spd-say.

I do not remember who wrote it, but it's not me.

    /^[^ ]/ {if(foundOutput) exit 0}')
if [ "$screenSize" != "" ]; then
    xrandr --output $output --fb $screenSize --off
	spd-say 'monitor off'
else
    xrandr --output $output --auto
    spd-say 'Monitor on'
