Subject: [PATCH] ui: Print available display backends with '-display help'
Date: Wed, 23 Oct 2019 15:41:51 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20191023134151.32011-1-huth@tuxfamily.org> (raw)
We already print availabled devices with "-device help", or available
backends with "-netdev help" or "-chardev help". Let's provide a way
for the users to query the available display backends, too.
