so, as the title suggests, i'm think ing of switching to xmonad for my wm... my Q is: how much haskell do i need to know to use it effectively? at the moment i am pre-alpha grasshopper status in my haskell coding skills, (i know haskell exists and is high on my list of languages to learn) though i don't want to have to become a haskell guru in order to be able to use xmonad. so really, what's the learning curve like to start using xmonad?
