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`.
XMonad core re-exports Control.Monad.State, which includes
a function "state" if you happen to use mtl-2. Since there's
a chance xmonad still works with mtl-1 avoid imports like:
import XMonad hiding (state)
Despite myLayouts currently being more popular in examples, make
them all myLayout as in man/xmonad.hs to avoid mixing them in the
same module as was done a few places, leading to confusion for some users.
This removes the emptyLayoutMod method from the LayoutModifier class, and
change the Stack parameter to redoLayout to a Maybe Stack one. It also changes
all affected code. This should should be a refactoring without any change in
program behaviour.
We weren't properly cleaning up in some cases, because we called focus,
which calls windows, while handling a message, which had the result that
changes to the layout were overwritten. This had the result that
windowNavigation combined with DragPane left stray drag bars hanging
around.
