Hi. I am Awesome WM user thinking about swithcing to the xmonad. Could I take an opportunity and ask about mouse support in xmonad/xmobar ? Actually, I assume that xmobar does nothing with mouse, but what is a common way of showing something like main menu to the user? Is there an option of switching windows with mouse by pressing on some window's icon, just like common DE does?
Yes, see http://xmonad.org/xmonad-docs/xmonad-contrib/XMonad-Hooks-EwmhDesktops.html xmonad itself does not provide something which the user can click on to switch windows, but if you use some other window-switcher program (e.g. one that comes with your favorite DE) the above module can be used to make xmonad to respond to it. -Brent
