Hi, I'm currently using dwm, and considering switching to Xmonad. I've been trying to figure out whether Xmonad supports the features that are important to me. The one I haven't been able to figure out for certain is: Does Xmonad support defining rules as to which workspace a new window will appear in? Under dwm I use specific workspaces for specific things - my web browser always goes on the same workspace, regardless of where I am when I launch it. I have some rules defined in my dwm config that specify this. This consistency is one of the essential things that I like about dwm. Another approach, instead of rules defining workspace based on client properties, would be if it is possible for a keybinding to specify where a client should go when it is launched eg. Ctrl-Alt-B = launch browser and make it go to workspace 'web' As far as I can tell so far, under Xmonad, new windows will just appear in the current workspace. thanks, Karl.
