(This had the advantage of keeping configs centralized at that one page.)
Unfortunately it turns out haskell.org doesn't support the MediaWiki API. Oops. So I wrote it using Tagsoup: ....
I hope this will be useful for people interested at looking at large numbers of xmonad.hs files.
Nice! Thanks, gwern. Handy to have shell accessible configs so easily. As I started discovering neat things perusing the files I found myself wondering which files they belonged to, but also felt messing with fancier file naming wouldn't be worth it. Anyhow, did tweak your program a little to include the url as a comment at the first line of the file. Figured others might want it so hs file is attached.
Cool. I've added a section on it to here: http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/Xmonad/Config_archive#Downloading - -- gwern -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) iEYEAREKAAYFAkl7L04ACgkQvpDo5Pfl1oIQkgCcDMrh1We0jcnrxTb9v2GBkmO2 EVcAnjDkr1WOHfDwoNjDwbqnE1I9Tuvr =Ui4S -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
