Hi all,
Just wanted to say Thanks! to everyone for XMonad. I've got it running with gnome for the panels but it blows the gnome WM out of the water.
I did run across some functionality I wanted that didn't exist so I wrote it up (attached). On reflection I should have added a long patch message. I found WindowGo for runOrRaise but often I want to pull a window (browser, mail, etc) to my current workspace instead of going to the one it's in. copyOrRun (and underlying copyMaybe) do that.
Cheers, -ljr
This looks interesting, but I am not thrilled by the duplication of raiseMaybe's code (DRY). Could raiseMaybe and copyMaybe be specialized functions instead, perhaps? It would look something like this, I guess: somethingMaybe ∷ (Window -> X ()) -> X () → Query Bool → X () somethingMaybe doWin f thatUserQuery = withWindowSet $ λs → do maybeResult ← filterM (runQuery thatUserQuery) (W.allWindows s) case maybeResult of [] → f (x:_) → doWin x raiseMaybe = somethingMaybe focus copyMaybe = somethingMaybe (windows . flip copyWindow (currentTag s)) -- gwern SBU botux Crust SALDV hrt .45 Threat Nike comsat 747
