Re: [xmonad] Stump like behavior...

If you want something more general, have a look at XMonad.Layout.SubLayouts and XMonad.Layout.Groups. I haven't used them myself, but I think the behavior you want is possible with them. /Anders On Wed, Aug 25, 2010 at 13:07, Magnus Therning wrote:

Hi,

Being a long time LISP/Stump user I migrated to xmonad about eight months ago and I am totally hooked, just bought 'Real World Haskell' and determined to 'get into it' ASAP!! Awesome.

I've read around the list but I can't see what I am after, prepared to write it myself if I have too... in stump you can create a new application in the same frame as the current one and then rotate between them; a circular queue of windows with the topmost one being the active one.

Can xmonad do this out of the box or with some nifty configuration applied to xmonad.hs ?

When I have a main window with firefox running and three smaller ones stacked beloe with pork, mutt and a shell open, I would like to be able to use the same space for emacs and swap between firefox and emacs as I work. It's not a problem really but I wondered if it would be easy to achieve the same stump-like operation?

It sounds like TwoPane is a special case of what you describe.

If you find a perfect match, or implement one yourself, then I have one or two uses for it myself :-)
