-- If you want a more "default" experience with regards to @M-1@ through @M-9@
-- (i.e. switch to the first nine topics in `myTopics` instead of switching to
-- the last used ones), you can replace the last list above with the following
-- (using "EZConfig" syntax):
--
-- > -- The following does two things:
-- > -- 1. Switch topics (no modifier)
-- > -- 2. Move focused window to topic N (shift modifier)
-- > [ ("M-" ++ m ++ k, f i)
-- > | (i, k) <- zip myTopics (map show [1 .. 9 :: Int])
-- > , (f, m) <- [(goto, ""), (windows . W.shift, "S-")]
-- > ]
--
-- We can now put the whole configuration together with the following (while
-- also checking that we haven't made any mistakes):
--
-- > myConfig = do
-- > checkTopicConfig myTopics myTopicConfig
-- > myLogHook <- makeMyLogHook
-- > return $ def
