zaphod mode
by Martin Carroll 21 Dec '11

21 Dec '11

Forgive me for asking a question that has probably been asked already, but I cannot find the answer: Is it possible to get xmonad to work with zaphod mode? I specifically need the ability to associate each xmonad workspace with a different CRTC. Is that possible? Thanks, Martin

Shifting client-instances to workspaces
by 1126 20 Dec '11

20 Dec '11

Hello! As this is my first submission to a mailinglist ever, I hope I do everything right ;) I am trying to learn Haskell, and as my fascination for this language grew, I considered shifting from i3 to xmonad. So far, everything more or less works. Now I am trying to pimp my configuration from a minimal one to a more sophisticated one. I added the ability to shift clients automatically to a workspace. So, when I start Firefox it is opened on my www-workspace automatically. I want the same for Irssi and Alpine and my Emacs. I want them opened on the communiaction-workspace, or the coding-workspace ;) But all of them are running withing URxvt, so the class is always URxvt. In i3 you are able to shift a client-instance to a workspace, like so: assign [class="URxvt" instance="irssi"] -> 2|com Is something similar possible in xmonad? And if so, how? Thanks in advance, greetings from Cologne, 1126!

xmobar dynamic resizing failing?
by Mike Meyer 17 Dec '11

17 Dec '11

I'm running xmonad +xmobar in a VM, and have noticed that xmobar will resize down if I shrink the window the VM displays in, but not resize up if I then make it larger. Has anyone looked into this? Thanks, <mike

Dynamic xmobar spawning
by Ben Boeckel 17 Dec '11

17 Dec '11

Hi, I'd like to get XMonad to spawn an xmobar for each monitor based on the current number of montiors that are present. This includes spawning new instances when monitors appear and tearing them down when they're taken offline[1]. I've gotten most of the logic done (on a branch that I've neglected to push from my work machines yet) and it involves some code from adamvo's config[3] including getScreens, multiPP, and mergePPOutputs which would indeed be good to get into contrib. In my case, since I use xmonadpropwrite for xmobar so that a single xmobar launch works independently of xmonad, it also requires a change in xmobar itself to accept *supplemental* commands to run from the command line. A branch with this support is on my github fork[4]. The last part is where I've hit a snag. I've tried to get some Xrandr support into the X11 package, but my experience with the FFI is pretty much nil and I've been unable to get something that looks/feels good beyond what is already done in xmobar itself. There's also the question of whether an X11-Xrandr package makes more sense (Xinerama is already there, but xft isn't). I imagine xmobar would also pick up the code that gets put into X11 or X11-Xrandr for its Xrandr needs instead of its own bindings if/when that happens. Thoughts? --Ben [1]Ideally, this could be toggled so that xmobar doesn't appear when it isn't wanted (presentations come to mind). X.H.ToggleHook[2] could probably help there.

hi! i'm looking for the method how to avoid showing infobars like dzenbar on a particular workspace. is it possible? if yes, could someone give concrete hints and recommendations how to implement it? i use xmonad-darcs and bars are spawned with the following lines: main = do myStatusBarPipe <- spawnPipe myStatusBar conkyBar <- spawnPipe myConkyBar

darcs patch: X.A.Navigation2D
by Norbert Zeh 14 Dec '11

14 Dec '11

Finally, Wirt and I think this is ready to be shared with the broader xmonad community. Wirt certainly deserves credit for lots of useful feedback and lots of thorough testing I wouldn't have had the patience to do. 1 patch for repository http://code.haskell.org/XMonadContrib: Thu Dec 8 16:58:42 AST 2011 Norbert Zeh <nzeh(a)cs.dal.ca> * X.A.Navigation2D This is a new module to support directional navigation across multiple screens. As such it is related to X.A.WindowNavigation and X.L.WindowNavigation, but it is more general. For a detailed discussion of the differences, see http://www.cs.dal.ca/~nzeh/xmonad/Navigation2D.pdf.

Issue 487 in xmonad: XMonad.Util.Run documentation is incorrect
by codesite-noreply＠google.com 11 Dec '11

11 Dec '11

Status: New Owner: ---- New issue 487 by chris...@gmail.com: XMonad.Util.Run documentation is incorrect http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=487 The documentation for XMonad.Util.Run.seconds includes this code as an example [1]: -- Use like: -- -- > (5.5 `seconds`) However, using the example gives this error in GHC 7.0.3: The operator `seconds' takes two arguments, but its type `Rational -> Int' has only one This is because the Haskell Report [2] explicitly defines operator sections to only work with two argument functions. The corrected documentation (although less pretty) should be: -- Use like: -- -- > seconds 5.5 [1] http://xmonad.org/xmonad-docs/xmonad-contrib/XMonad-Util-Run.html#v:seconds [2] http://www.haskell.org/onlinereport/haskell2010/haskellch3.html#x8-300003.5

Who runs the mailing list?
by Magnus Therning 08 Dec '11

08 Dec '11

I just re-subscribed, after a long semi-pleasant stay in Gnome3-land I've decided I had enough and decided to come back to Xmonad :) Anyway, when subscribing I noticed that the list claims to be run by "dons at galois.com". AFAIK he's left Galois, does the mail address still work? Otherwise I think the list should be re-configured a little. /M -- Magnus Therning OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4 email: magnus(a)therning.org jabber: magnus(a)therning.org twitter: magthe http://therning.org/magnus
