[xmonad] Re: float, match by regex?

lowly coder writes:

so in .xmonad/xmonad.hs, I see how i can make a window float, by selecting it's title; however, suppose I wnat a bunch of windows to float, i.e.:

"float1" "float2" ...

is it possible to instaed of listing out all titles, specify a regex, or a function that goes [Char] -> Bool ? (for deciding whether to float the window or not)

thanks!

You want the function `elem`, which returns true if the first argument is an element of a list. To use it as a managehook, you could do something like this: className doFloat -- | Return 'True' if @q@ is an element of @xs@ q
