Essentially, whenever the tutorial actually has decent material on the
subject matter. The replacement is roughly done as follows:
- logHook → tutorial
- keybindings → tutorial, as this is thoroughly covered
- manageHook → tutorial + X.D.Extending, as the manageHook stuff the
tutorial talks about is a little bit of an afterthought.
- X.D.Extending (on its own) → tutorial + X.D.Extending
- layoutHook → tutorial + X.D.Extending, as the tutorial, while
talking about layouts, doesn't necessarily have a huge focus there.
- mouse bindings → leave this alone, as the tutorial does not at all
talk about them.
Some users like to include type signatures in their configuration. The
HiddenWindows type constructor was not exported, making it impossible to
write a type signature when using hiddenWindows.
With this change, a user can write an xmonad.hs like:
import XMonad
import XMonad.Layout.Hidden (HiddenWindows, hiddenWindows)
import XMonad.Layout.LayoutModifier
myLayout :: ModifiedLayout
HiddenWindows
(Choose Tall (Choose (Mirror Tall) Full))
Window
myLayout = hiddenWindows $ layoutHook def
main :: IO ()
main = xmonad def { layoutHook = myLayout }
A layout modifer that is meant to work with the BinarySpacePartition
layout. By removing windows from the window set and adding them back
at a later time, you can move windows to a different branch of the BSP
tree.
