Hi,

How can I bind certain layouts to key combinations? So rather than cycle
thorugh layouts with Mod Space, I'd like Mod F1 to give me layout 1, Mod
F2 to give me layout 2, etc... I've been googling for a bit, but can't
find an answer.

Thanks.

Hi Anze,

You can do this using the JumpToLayout message from the XMonad.Layout.LayoutCombinators extension module. For example:

import XMonad hiding ( (|||) ) -- don't use the normal ||| operator
import XMonad.Layout.LayoutCombinators -- use the one from LayoutCombinators instead
import XMonad.Util.EZConfig -- add keybindings easily

main = xmonad myConfig

myConfig = defaultConfig {
...
layoutHook = tall ||| Mirror tall ||| Full
