-- $usage
-- You can use this module with the following in your @~\/.xmonad\/xmonad.hs@:
--
-- > import XMonad.Layout.MultiColumns
--
-- Then edit your @layoutHook@ by adding the multiCol layout:
--
-- > myLayouts = multiCol [1] 4 0.01 0.5 ||| etc..
-- > main = xmonad defaultConfig { layoutHook = myLayouts }
--
-- Or alternatively:
--
-- > myLayouts = Mirror (multiCol [1] 2 0.01 (-0.25)) ||| etc..
-- > main = xmonad defaultConfig { layoutHook = myLayouts }
--
-- The maximum number of windows in a column can be controlled using the
-- IncMasterN messages and the column containing the focused window will be
-- modified. If the value is 0, all remaining windows will be placed in that
-- column when all columns before that has been filled.
--
-- The size can be set to between 1 and -0.5. If the value is positive, the
-- master column will be of that size. The rest of the screen is split among
-- the other columns. But if the size is negative, it instead indicates the
-- size of all non-master columns and the master column will cover the rest of
-- the screen. If the master column would become smaller than the other
-- columns, the screen is instead split equally among all columns. Therefore,
-- if equal size among all columns are desired, set the size to -0.5.
