I have dzen2 running in the slot, displaying a date.
I have this in my Config.hs:
   import XMonadContrib.DynamicLog
   logHook = dynamicLog

http://www.xmonad.org/haddock/XMonadContrib-DynamicLog.html says: Log events in:  1 2 [3] 4 8 format. Suitable to pipe into dzen. (Log? Where?)
I have studied http://dzen.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/README, but can't figure out how to do this.
Thank you.

A logHook function will send output on xmonad's standard out.  So in your .xinitrc or .xsession file (wherever you start xmonad) you need to pipe its output to dzen2:

/path/to/xmonad | dzen2 -options...

Hope that helps!
