You can switch to workspace N with mod-N. For example, to switch to workspace 5, you would press mod-5. Similarly, you can move the current window to another workspace with mod-shift-N.

When running with multiple monitors (Xinerama), each screen has exactly 1 workspace visible. When \fBxmonad\fR starts, workspace 1 is on screen 1, workspace 2 is on screen 2, etc. If you switch to a workspace which is currently visible on another screen, \fBxmonad\fR simply switches focus to that screen. If you switch to a workspace which is *not* visible, \fBxmonad\fR replaces the workspace on the *current* screen with the workspace you selected.
When running with multiple monitors (Xinerama), each screen has exactly 1 workspace visible. mod-{w,e,r} switch the focus between screens, while shift-mod-{w,e,r} move the current window to that screen. When \fBxmonad\fR starts, workspace 1 is on screen 1, workspace 2 is on screen 2, etc. When switching workspaces to one that is already visible, the current and visible workspaces are swapped.

For example, if you have the following configuration:
.RS
.PP
Screen 1: Workspace 2
.PP
Screen 2: Workspace 5 (current workspace)
.RE
.PP
and you wanted to view workspace 7 on screen 1, you would press:
.RS
.PP
mod-2 (to select workspace 2, and make screen 1 the current screen)
.PP
mod-7 (to select workspace 7)
.RE
.PP
Since switching to the workspace currently visible on a given screen is such a common operation, shortcuts are provided: mod-{w,e,r} switch to the workspace currently visible on screens 1, 2, and 3 respectively. Likewise, shift-mod-{w,e,r} moves the current window to the workspace on that screen. Using these keys, the above example would become mod-w mod-7.
