Hi Nate. I assume you meant to write `kscreen-doctor output.HDMI-0.enable` for
the second command. Unfortunately, this results in the screen being in
"duplicate" mode rather than extending my desktop.

All I could find for documentation was in "kscreen-doctor --help", which
doesn't show all available options. By looking at the source code and
experimenting, I finally figured out how to make this work with kscreen-doctor.
At first, I had the display enabling and parameter setting in a single command,
which resulted in the screen not becoming enabled, but by splitting it into two
commands, it works. I have it running in a single line as follows:

> kscreen-doctor output.HDMI-0.enable && kscreen-doctor 
> output.HDMI-0.mode.1280x1024@75 output.HDMI-0.position.1920,120

I will update my screen commands to use kscreen-doctor, since this is the
officially supported way.
