What does the `-dpi` option of `Xephyr` do. I'm trying different values like
this:
Xephyr -dpi 20 -screen 640x480 :1
and the programs running in the session don't look different in any way.
It changes the static global resolution size reported by xdpyinfo - for
instance, with the above, xdpyinfo says:
screen #0:
dimensions: 640x480 pixels (813x610 millimeters)
resolution: 20x20 dots per inch
but with -dpi 96 it says:
screen #0:
dimensions: 640x480 pixels (169x127 millimeters)
resolution: 96x96 dots per inch
It doesn't change the way X draws anything - some applications may choose to
use it to adjust the size they scale images or text to, or they may ignore it.
