Xrandr to xorg config

I have a Dell Precission 5510 connected to a Dell UP2715K 5K monitor via a Plugable thunderbolt => dual dvi adapter. The 5K monitor is tiled as two displays. The following xrandr commands tile them up nicely and I have a 5K full resolution display. I was wondering if there was anyway to configure this via xorg so that I don't have the run the script every time I connect:

xrandr --output DP-1 --mode 2560x2880 --dpi 120 --left-of eDP-1
xrandr --output DP-2 --mode 2560x2880 --dpi 120 --left-of DP-1
xrandr --output eDP-1 --auto --right-of DP-1
xrandr --setmonitor Dell auto DP-1,DP-2

DP-1 and DP-2 are the tiled displays of the 5K monitor. eDP-1 is the laptop monitor.

Re: Xrandr to xorg config

Thanks... I've seen that. What I'm having trouble with is mapping the

xrandr --setmonitor Dell auto DP-1,DP-2

command to xorg. Any pointers on what that might look like?
