I think most of these things can be improved, though maybe not the error messages. I really love *using* xmonad, and I've not found another window manager that I'm nearly as happy with, but the horror of *configuring* xmonad wastes a lot of my time and makes me disinclined to recommend it to others.

Reading that you find Haskell problematic, I feel a bit better that I, as a non-programmer with no formal computer training, was pretty much stymied. I just copied examples I found on the net but without really understanding them. Have you looked at dwm, written in C? It was the forerunner of xmonad and functionally and visually the two are quite similar. I was able to modify it pretty easily by editing config.h and patching the code even though I know no C. -- Anthony Campbell - ac@acampbell.org.uk Microsoft-free zone - Using Debian GNU/Linux http://www.acampbell.org.uk - sample my ebooks at http://www.smashwords.com/profile/view/acampbell
