Hello again, the second little issue that troubles me is how make dzen2 display selected workspaces on my two monitors. The relevant line in my setup is this: myXmonadBar = "dzen2 -x '95' -y '0' -h '30' -w '1900' -ta 'l' -fg '#FFFFFF' -bg '#1B1D1E'" And this is really nice. My current workspace is highlighted and also "active" workspaces i.e. workspaces with applications on them are highlighted. But there is no way to distinguish which workspace is the current workspace on the other monitor. xmobar was putting parenthesis automatically which was really good and helpful. Is there anyway to tell dzen2 how to highlight current workspaces on my separate monitors. Please advise, Robert -- A way to reduce entropy: know everything: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maxwell%27s_Demon
