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.
This is a convenience module in order to have less import noise. It
re-exports the following:
a) Commonly used modules in full (Data.Foldable, Data.Applicative, and
so on); though only those that play nicely with each other, so that
XMonad.Prelude can be imported unqualified without any problems.
This prevents things like `Prelude.(.)` and `Control.Category.(.)`
fighting with each other.
b) Helper functions that don't necessarily fit in any other module;
e.g., the often used abbreviation `fi = fromIntegral`.
The base that comes with ghc-7.6.1 no longer includes Prelude.catch;
so these modules were changed so that there is no warning for
import Prelude hiding (catch)
At the same time these changes should be compatible with older GHCs,
since the catch being has never been the one in the Prelude.
* true error: more modules export foldl/foldl'/foldr, so explicitly use the Data.Foldable one
* -Werror error: transition from Control.OldException to Control.Exception, assuming everything was IOException
