-- $usage
-- You can use this module with the following in your @xmonad.hs@:
--
-- > import XMonad.Layout.IndependentScreens
--
-- You can define your workspaces by calling @withScreens@:
--
-- > myConfig = def { workspaces = withScreens 2 ["web", "email", "irc"] }
--
-- This will create \"physical\" workspaces with distinct internal names for
-- each (screen, virtual workspace) pair.
--
-- Then edit any keybindings that use the list of workspaces or refer
-- to specific workspace names. In the default configuration, only
-- the keybindings for changing workspace do this:
--
-- > keyBindings conf = let modm = modMask conf in fromList $
-- > {- lots of other keybindings -}
-- > [((m .|. modm, k), windows $ f i)
-- > | (i, k) <- zip (XMonad.workspaces conf) [xK_1 .. xK_9]
-- > , (f, m) <- [(W.greedyView, 0), (W.shift, shiftMask)]]
--
-- This should change to
--
-- > keyBindings conf = let modm = modMask conf in fromList $
-- > {- lots of other keybindings -}
-- > [((m .|. modm, k), windows $ onCurrentScreen f i)
-- > | (i, k) <- zip (workspaces' conf) [xK_1 .. xK_9]
-- > , (f, m) <- [(W.greedyView, 0), (W.shift, shiftMask)]]
--
-- In particular, the analogue of @XMonad.workspaces@ is
-- @workspaces'@, and you can use @onCurrentScreen@ to convert functions
-- of virtual workspaces to functions of physical workspaces, which work
-- by marshalling the virtual workspace name and the currently focused
-- screen into a physical workspace name.
--
-- A complete example abusing many of the functions below is available in the
-- <https://xmonad.org/configurations.html XMonad.Config.Dmwit> configuration.

-- $converting
-- You shouldn't need to use the functions below very much. They are used
-- internally. However, in some cases, they may be useful, and so are exported
-- just in case. In general, the \"marshall\" functions convert the convenient
-- form (like \"web\") you would like to use in your configuration file to the
-- inconvenient form (like \"2_web\") that xmonad uses internally. Similarly,
-- the \"unmarshall\" functions convert in the other direction.

-- | This turns a pretty-printer into one that is aware of the independent screens. The
-- converted pretty-printer first filters out physical workspaces on other screens, then
-- converts all the physical workspaces on this screen to their virtual names.
-- Note that 'ppSort' still operates on physical (marshalled) workspace names,
-- otherwise functions from "XMonad.Util.WorkspaceCompare" wouldn't work.
-- If you need to sort on virtual names, see 'marshallSort'.
--
-- For example, if you have have two bars on the left and right screens, respectively, and @pp@ is
-- a pretty-printer, you could apply 'marshallPP' when creating a @StatusBarConfig@ from "XMonad.Hooks.StatusBar".
--
-- A sample config looks like this:
--
-- > mySBL = statusBarProp "xmobar" $ pure (marshallPP (S 0) pp)
-- > mySBR = statusBarProp "xmobar" $ pure (marshallPP (S 1) pp)
-- > main = xmonad $ withEasySB (mySBL <> mySBR) defToggleStrutsKey def

marshallPP :: ScreenId -> PP -> PP
marshallPP s pp = pp { ppRename = ppRename pp . unmarshallW

-- | Take a pretty-printer and turn it into one that only runs when the current
-- workspace is one associated with the given screen. The way this works is a
-- bit hacky, so beware: the 'ppOutput' field of the input will not be invoked
-- if either of the following conditions is met:
--
-- 1. The 'ppSort' of the input returns an empty list (when not given one).
--
-- 2. The 'ppOrder' of the input returns the exact string @\"\\0\"@.
--
-- For example, you can use this to create a pipe which tracks the title of the
-- window currently focused on a given screen (even if the screen is not
-- current) by doing something like this:
--
-- > ppFocus s = whenCurrentOn s def
-- > { ppOrder = \(_:_:title:_) -> [title]
-- > , ppOutput = appendFile ("focus" ++ show s) . (++ "\n")
-- > }
--
-- Sequence a few of these pretty-printers to get a log hook that keeps each
-- screen's title up-to-date.

-- | @vSort@ is a function that sorts 'VirtualWindowSpace's with virtual names.
-- @marshallSort s vSort@ is a function which sorts 'PhysicalWindowSpace's with virtual names,
-- but keeps only the 'WindowSpace'\'s on screen @s@.
--
-- NOTE: @vSort@ operating on virtual names comes with some caveats, see
-- <https://github.com/xmonad/xmonad-contrib/issues/420 this issue> for
-- more information. You can use 'marshallSort' like in the following example:
--
-- === __Example__
--
-- > pp' :: ScreenId -> PP -> PP
-- > pp' s pp = (marshallPP s pp) { ppSort = fmap (marshallSort s) (ppSort pp) }
-- >
-- > mySBL = statusBarProp "xmobar" $ pure (pp' (S 0) pp)
-- > mySBR = statusBarProp "xmobar" $ pure (pp' (S 1) pp)
-- > main = xmonad $ withEasySB (mySBL <> mySBR) defToggleStrutsKey def
--
-- In this way, you have a custom virtual names sort on top of 'marshallPP'.
