+-- You can use this module by adding 
+--
+-- > import XMonad.Layout.Renamed
+--
+-- to your @~\/.xmonad\/xmonad.hs@.
+--
+-- You can then use 'renamed' to modify the description of your
+-- layouts. For example:
+--
+-- > myLayout = renamed [PrependWords "Awesome"] $ tiled ||| Mirror tiled ||| Full
+
+-- | Apply a list of 'Rename' values to a layout, from left to right.
