-- $usage
-- Allows to have several floating scratchpads running different applications.
-- Bind a key to 'namedScratchpadSpawnAction'.
-- Pressing it will spawn configured application, or bring it to the current
-- workspace if it already exists.
-- Pressing the key with the application on the current workspace will
-- send it to a hidden workspace called @NSP@.
--
-- If you already have a workspace called @NSP@, it will use that.
-- @NSP@ will also appear in xmobar and dzen status bars. You can tweak your
-- @dynamicLog@ settings to filter it out if you like.
--
-- Create named scratchpads configuration in your xmonad.hs like this:
--
-- > import XMonad.StackSet as W
-- > import XMonad.ManageHook
-- > import XMonad.Util.NamedScratchpad
-- >
-- > scratchpads = [
-- > -- run htop in xterm, find it by title, use default floating window placement
-- >     NS "htop" "xterm -e htop" (title =? "htop") defaultFloating ,
-- >
-- > -- run stardict, find it by class name, place it in the floating window
-- > -- 1/6 of screen width from the left, 1/6 of screen height
-- > -- from the top, 2/3 of screen width by 2/3 of screen height
-- >     NS "stardict" "stardict" (className =? "Stardict")
-- >         (customFloating $ W.RationalRect (1/6) (1/6) (2/3) (2/3)) ,
-- >
-- > -- run gvim, find by role, don't float
-- >     NS "notes" "gvim --role notes ~/notes.txt" (role =? "notes") nonFloating
-- > ] where role = stringProperty "WM_WINDOW_ROLE"
--
-- Add keybindings:
--
-- >  , ((modm .|. controlMask .|. shiftMask, xK_t), namedScratchpadAction scratchpads "htop")
-- >  , ((modm .|. controlMask .|. shiftMask, xK_s), namedScratchpadAction scratchpads "stardict")
-- >  , ((modm .|. controlMask .|. shiftMask, xK_n), namedScratchpadAction scratchpads "notes")
--
-- ... and a manage hook:
--
-- >  , manageHook = namedScratchpadManageHook scratchpads
--
-- For detailed instruction on editing the key binding see
