Wed May 9 21:36:20 MDT 2007 Jason Creighton * Swap workspaces instead of switching screens Previously, xmonad if workspace 1 and 2 were visible on screens 1 and 2, and workspace 1 was the current workspace, mod-2 would simply simple switch focus to screen 2.

The new behavior is to always show the workspace you're switching to on the current screen. If the new workspace was visible on another screen, the formerly-current workspace will appear on that screen. In the example above, workspace 2 would appear on screen 1 and workspace 1 would appear on screen 2.

It's hard to say whether this is an improvement, so I'm going to try this patch out for a couple days before applying it to the main repo. Comments about this change are solicited.

It also turns out that the current version of this is buggy. I'm too lazy to write a well-thought out, working version of this right now, but I still want to see if this behavior is a win, so I should have something that actually works within a couple days or so. Jason Creighton
