This one isn't actually a personal configuration, it's more like
X.C.Desktop and the other desktop-specific configs. As I happen to
sometimes use it for testing whether everything still works with
decorated layouts, it shouldn't be considered abandoned.

https://github.com/xmonad/xmonad-contrib/pull/192 introduced a breaking change:
* `XMonad.Hooks.EwmhDesktops`

 `ewmh` function will use `logHook` for handling activated window. And now
 by default window activation will do nothing.
This breaking change can be avoided if we designed that a bit
differently. #192 changed `ewmhDesktopsEventHook` to invoke `logHook`
instead of focusing the window that requested activation and now
`logHook` is supposed to invoke a `ManageHook` through `activateLogHook`
which consults a global `NetActivated` extensible state to tell if it's
being invoked from `ewmhDesktopsEventHook`. This seems convoluted to me.
A better design, in my opinion, is to invoke the `ManageHook` directly
from `ewmhDesktopsEventHook`, and we just need a way to configure the
hook. Luckily, we now have `X.U.ExtensibleConf` which makes this
straightforward. So we now have a `setEwmhActivateHook`, and the
activation hook defaults to focusing the window, undoing the breaking
change.

By deprecating everything except `WSIs` and adding constructors to
logically combine `WSType` values, we can have a more flexible interface.
Adding anything to the old interface would mean going through `WSIs`, and
all old constructors can be implemented of terms of `WSIs`.
When we applied hlint hints in bd5b969d9b,
the definition of desktopLayoutModifiers got (via the hint to eta
reduce) changed from
desktopLayoutModifiers layout = avoidStruts layout
to
desktopLayoutModifiers = avoidStruts
While the former is general enough to infer the type signature
LayoutClass l a => l a -> ModifiedLayout AvoidStruts l a
the latter just sees the usage site of
, layoutHook = desktopLayoutModifiers $ layoutHook def
in the desktopConfig function and thus—through the magic of
MonomorphismRestriction—infers the specialized type
Choose Tall (Choose (Mirror Tall) Full) Window
-> ModifiedLayout AvoidStruts
(Choose Tall (Choose (Mirror Tall) Full)) Window
This obviously completely falls apart once someone wants to change the
layout and still uses desktopLayoutModifiers (unaware that it is just
avoidStruts at the moment). The easy fix is to give things type
signatures, so nothing needs to be inferred.
The _actual_ solution would be, in my opinion, to completely deprecate
X.C.Desktop and remove it in a future release, as well as to completely
rewrite the provided Example.hs. This needs more deliberation though.

- Added `workspacesOn` for filtering workspaces on the current screen.
- Added `withScreen` to specify names for a given single screen.
- Added new aliases `PhysicalWindowSpace` and `VirtualWindowSpace`
for a `WindowSpace` for easier to read function signatures.
- Fixed a bug where `marshallPP` always sorted workspace names
lexically.

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`.
* New logout options
Factor out Mate logout action and add a shutdown action which the user can bind additionally or in its place.
* Add documentation
* Update CHANGES.md
Starting with 5240116f3c we only support
GHC versions 8.4.4 and up (more precisely, the GHC version associated
with stackage lts-12 and up). The imports in question are now in
Prelude and need not be imported explicitly.
- By default window activation does nothing.
- `activateLogHook` may be used for running some 'ManageHook' for
activated window.
- `activated` predicate may be used for checking was window activated or
not.
* Use global state instead of per-layout - so now window is minimized on
all workspaces (EWMH requires that windows with _NET_WM_STATE_HIDDEN
set should be minimized on any workspace but previously they were not)
* Use `windows` instead of `modify`. That should fix bugs related to
actions that should be done by `windows` and not done by
`modify` (fixes#46)
* Mark module X.H.RestoreMinimized as deprecated
As it now consists of a startup hook, a manage hook, an event hook and
a layout modifier, and behaves erratically when any one component is not
included in a user's config (which happens to be the case for all
configs from xmonad-contrib 0.12 since the startup hook is a new
inclusion), it's probably wise to have a single function that adds
all the hooks to the config instead.
NB: This will need a release notes entry anyway!
Correct the docstrings / comments in X.C.Mate, which still referenced
gnomeConfig. Also update the session manager configuration to use
dconf and a current (on Mint at least) path for the session config.
The screen equivalent of 'withWorkspaces' lets you more easily define keys that
move/swap between screens.
Also, rename wsKeyspecs to wsKeys, and make a couple of doc tweaks.
This allows easier configuration of workspaces and their keybindings. Required
generalizing the 'Prime' type, so lots of other lines changed in rather trivial
ways.
