I was just talking with cce in #xmonad, who suggested that it would be nice if xmonad, when starting up, checked for the presence of xmonad.hs in ~/.xmonad/ and installed the template xmonad.hs if it's not there. Especially for those installing xmonad via a packaged distribution, it may not be immediately obvious how to start configuring xmonad, where to put xmonad.hs, and so on. I thought I'd run this idea by the list to see what people think before I implement it... perhaps there's a good reason it doesn't do this already.
well, a lot of other apps don't put stub config files in, vim/mutt/ion etc. they instead document what needs to be done.
True, but it still sounds like a nice idea to me. It wouldn't hurt to be more friendly than other programs. -- David Roundy Department of Physics Oregon State University
