Hi all,
(please forgive me, my mother tounge is spanish, so be patient).
I've successfully instaled xmonad and xmobar on a FREEBSD-6.3.
I have done my key bindings, and a nice status bar for xmobar.
Xmonad is really nice and productive (as I dislike the mouse).
I come from Ion WM, and I want to change the Mod1 (ALT key) by
the Control key. if it is possible please tell me how it could be
done.
In your config file,

    ~/.xmonad/xmonad.hs

change the default value of the modMask from mod1Mask to controlMask 
That is,

    import XMonad

    main = xmonad defaultConfig {
            modMask = controlMask
           }

would be your config file.
