+Fvwm supports the RandR X11 protocol. If Fvwm has been compiled with
 RandR support then it tracks the outputs (displays) which it finds.
 These outputs are stored by name, which can be found by running using
 the xrand(1) command.
 
+When Fvwm detects monitors, it adds them to a tree with a defined order, and
+each monitor is assigned a number.  That order is top-down, left-to-right, so
+for example, the following diagram illustrates a monitor layout and their
+assigned number.
+
+....
+A (0)
+B (1)   C (2)    D (3)
+....
+
+Hence it is possible to then refer to the 2nd monitor and print its name via
+expansion variables as:
+
+....
+$[monitor.1.name]
+....
+
+Which would print the name, *B*.
+
 In doing so, Fvwm tracks events from RandR, such as when a given output
-changes size, or has been removed. In such cases, Fvwm will react by
-moving windows. If an output is removed, those windows on that removed
-output will be moved to the next active output (the output which
-contains the mouse pointer). If the same output reappears, Fvwm will
-move those windows back again.

 monitor's change, there is a function called _RandRFunc_ which the user can
