Have you looked at dwm, written in C? It was the forerunner of xmonad and functionally and visually the two are quite similar. I was able to modify it pretty easily by editing config.h and patching the code even though I know no C.
While I'm still also an outsider, I figure I can say this: Posting signs to the help list for X that folks should use competing product Y is likely to eventually generate friction. Seeing the comment I experience an awkward embarrassment, like seeing a fellow guest insult the host's cooking. I'd suggest it would be more polite to make that reply private. As for being mystified by haskell itself: I share some of that befuddlement, but take it as an interesting tinkering opportunity. Playing in a domain which I know well, with an unfamiliar toolset, is pleasant. So I don't anticipate being an outsider long. :) - Allen S. Rout
