Improvements to DynamicLog include:
* Greatly expanded and improved documentation and examples
* remove seemingly useless makeSimpleDzenConfig function
* factor out xmobarPP
* add new ppExtras field to PP record, for specifying 'extra'
loggers which can supply information other than window title,
layout, and workspace status to a status bar (for example, time and date,
battery status, mail status, etc.)
The new XMonad.Util.Loggers module provides some example loggers that
can be used in the new ppExtras field of the PP record. Create your own,
add them to this module, go crazy! =)

-- $usage
|
|
-- You can use this module by importing it into your @~\/.xmonad\/xmonad.hs@:
|
|
--
|
|
-- > import XMonad.Util.Loggers
|
|
--
|
|
-- Then, add one or more loggers to the
|
|
-- 'XMonad.Hooks.DynamicLog.ppExtras' field of your
|
|
-- 'XMonad.Hooks.DynamicLoc.PP' format. For example:
|
|
--
|
|
-- > -- display load averages and a pithy quote along with xmonad status.
|
|
-- > , logHook = dynamicLogWithPP $ defaultPP { ppExtras = [ loadAvg, logCmd "fortune -n 40 -s" ] }
|
|
--
|
|
-- Of course, there is nothing really special about these so-called
|
|
-- \'loggers\': they are just @X (Maybe String)@ actions. So you can
|
|
-- use them anywhere you would use an @X (Maybe String)@, not just
|
|
-- with DynamicLog.
|
|
--
|
|
-- Additional loggers welcome!
