thanks and a feature request

thanks to everyone on this list and in #haskell who assisted me with freebsd build issues. the combination of an updated Cabal library, and X11-extras-0.1 fixed my issues. i am now using xmonad at home, work, and on my laptop (all running freebsd6.2). as a feature request, it would be nice to pre-assign workspaces to application names in Config.hs. i don't see the need to be too dogmatic about copying dwm, but this is one feature i like. thanks again brad

Possibly you could hack this up in Config.hs, (basically, check the application name, and assign it to a certain workspace). Its not a priority yet for us though. -- Don

This is something I'm interested in too, as I use it all the time in wmii - or rather, I used to! :-) I'll probably have a go at this over the weekend unless someone else beats me to it. :-) Cheers, -Andy -- Andy Gimblett Computer Science Department University of Wales Swansea http://www.cs.swan.ac.uk/~csandy/
