This isn't true since 63e31ccd8d, `xmonadPropLog'` does the encoding
now and accepts a normal Haskell String now.
Fixes: 63e31ccd8d ("X.H.DynamicLog: Move UTF8 encoding from dynamicLogString to xmonadPropLog'")
The new X.H.Rescreen provides a simpler composable API for hooking into
rescreen. Unfortunately it also breaks other code that listens for
RRScreenChangeNotifyEvent, so this conversion isn't really optional.
Not that there's any dispute this is nicer, is there? :-)
`statusBarGeneric`: A generic `StatusBarConfig` that launches a status
bar but takes a generic `X ()` logging function instead of a `PP`. This
has several uses:
* With `xmonadPropLog` or `xmonadPropLog'` in the logging function, a
custom non-`PP`-based logger can be used for logging into an `xmobar`.
* With `mempty` as the logging function, it's possible to manage a status
bar that reads information from EWMH properties like `taffybar`.
* With `mempty` as the logging function, any other dock like `trayer` or
`stalonetray` can be managed by this module.

statusBarPipe abuses the interface of StatusBarConfig by starting the
status bar before the startupHook. This worked correctly before, but it
does not play will with `dynamicSBs`
command specific
- The names were awfully long. spawnStatusBar and killStatusBar are
perfectly fine alternatives.
- It's more flexible to have killStatusBar command specific. Also added
killAllStatusBars to provide the old functionality
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`.
This applies for withSB and withEasySB, as well as statusBarProp and
statusBarPropTo, making composability better. statusBarPipe is more
awkward to use now, but that's fine
- XMonad.Hooks.DynamicLog.PP: the pretty-printing abstracion, with the
corresponding utilities
- XMonad.Hooks.StatusBar: A new module to provide a better interface to
manage external status bars.
