The current DynamicWorkspaces module only supports adding new workspaces at the start of the list of workspaces. This means when binding workspaces to keys based on the position in the list, key bindings can change as workspaces are added in removed in a far more destructive way than necessary. Instead, supporting appending and arbitrary insertion allows the user to determine where the new workspace should be added. This patch is a straight generalization of the addHiddenWorkspace' function. Rather than always using `(:)` to insert the new workspace into the list of workspaces, this patches causes it to use an arbitrary list insertion function instead. A few new functions are added to prevent breakage of external code while exported functions are left unchanged. List of new functions: appendWorkspace appendWorkspacePrompt addWorkspaceAt addHiddenWorkspaceAt Existing functions were modified to call their generalized brethren where possible without changing functionality. This patch should not change behavior for any existing users of this module.
xmonad-contrib : third party extensions to the xmonad window manager
http://xmonad.org
You need the ghc compiler and xmonad window manager installed in
order to use these extensions.
For installation and configuration instructions, please see the
xmonad website, the documents included with the xmonad source
distribution, and online haddock documentation:
http://www.xmonad.org/xmonad-docs

Changelogs
For a list of changes since the 0.8.x releases, see:
http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Xmonad/Notable_changes_since_0.8
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Updates to XMonadContrib-0.9 that may Require Changes to ~/.xmonad/xmonad.hs
Please see the Changelogs and xmonad-contrib haddock documentation
links for further details regarding the following changes.
* XMonad.Hooks.EwmhDesktops no longer uses layoutHook, the
ewmhDesktopsLayout modifier has been removed from xmonad-contrib. It
uses logHook, handleEventHook, and startupHook instead and provides
a convenient function 'ewmh' to add EWMH support to a defaultConfig.
* Most DynamicLog users can continue with configs unchanged, but users
of the quickbar functions 'xmobar' or 'dzen' will need to change
xmonad.hs: their types have changed to allow easier composition with
other XConfig modifiers. The 'dynamicLogDzen' and 'dynamicLogXmobar'
functions have been removed.
* WindowGo or safeSpawn users may need to change command lines due to
safeSpawn changes.
* People explicitly referencing the "SP" scratchpad workspace should
change it to "NSP" which is also used by the new Util.NamedScratchpad.
* (Optional) People who explicitly use swapMaster in key or mouse
bindings should change it to shiftMaster. It's the current default
used where swapMaster had been used previously. It works better than
swapMaster when using floating and tiled windows together on the
same workspace.
