Thanks for the patch! Looks pretty good to me, so if there continue to be no complaints about this patch for another day or two, I'll push it. ~d On 2014-02-02 16:42, Christian Wills wrote:
Hello Xmonad devs,
Attached is a simple module that allows you to spawn a pipe and store it in the xmonad state as a String, Handle pair so that it can be accessed from a different hook from where the pipe was initially created.
The initial motivation for this was I wanted to be able to spawn dzen from inside the startupHook and write to the pipe from inside the logHook. I didn't like being forced to start the dzen pipe up in a global namespace so that I could access it from the logHook. This example is detailed in the Haddocks but there are many other use cases.
Cheers,
Chris Wills
