Hy, can I put the master-column of the Tall-Layout to a fixed width spoken in pixels or another fixed unit and not a percentage? I want this column to be 80 chars wide no matter how wide the screen is. Is this possible?

Thanks

For a single screen or a screen setup with a constant width you could determine the width of the screen and calculate the percentage: withWindowSet $ return . rect_width . screenRect . W.screenDetail . W.current should give you the screen width as a X Dimension. This can't handle non-constant screen width(e.g. xinerama setups) though. (Implementing such behaviour as a layout modifier should work.)
