Hi, Attached is a patch that adds a prompt to select and view a workspace based on its tag and its name which comes from the WorkspaceName extension. Hoping this could interest someone else, A.

Hi A., This functionality is actually already available through the XMonad.Prompt.Workspace module. Just adding a keybinding to workspacePrompt (windows . greedyView) should do the trick. Let me know if that works for you. -Brent On Fri, May 1, 2015 at 6:43 PM wrote:

I don't think workspacePrompt is the same thing -- it knows about workspace tags, but not workspace names as assigned by the WorkspaceName module. ~d On Fri, May 29, 2015 at 12:17 PM, Brent Yorgey wrote:

Exactly, the proposed prompt allows the user to select a workspace by its name (assigned by the WorkspaceName module) while Xmonad.Prompt.Workspace.workspacePrompt uses the workspace tag. I provide a new patch where the function name and signature have been adapted to look like the original worskpacePrompt function. Antoine.

Aha, I see now. Thanks, I've applied this patch. The code contained some tab characters so I also took the liberty of pushing another patch cleaning up the indentation and converting all tabs to spaces (generally regarded as good Haskell style). -Brent On Mon, Jun 1, 2015 at 5:44 AM wrote:
