XMonad.Actions.MostRecentlyUsed

Contents

Usage
Interface

Description

Based on the Alt+Tab behaviour common outside of xmonad.

Synopsis

configureMRU :: forall (l :: Type -> Type). XConfig l -> XConfig l
mostRecentlyUsed :: [KeySym] -> KeySym -> X ()
withMostRecentlyUsed :: [KeySym] -> KeySym -> (Window -> Location -> X ()) -> X ()
data Location = Location {
- workspace :: !WorkspaceId
- screen :: !ScreenId
}

Usage

configureMRU must be applied to your config in order for mostRecentlyUsed to work.

main :: IO ()
main = xmonad . configureMRU . ... $ def
  { ...
  }

Once that's done, it can be used normally in keybinds:

, ((mod1Mask, xK_Tab), mostRecentlyUsed [xK_Alt_L, xK_Alt_R] xK_Tab)

N.B.: This example assumes that mod1Mask corresponds to alt, which is not always the case, depending on how your system is configured.

Interface

configureMRU :: forall (l :: Type -> Type). XConfig l -> XConfig l Source #

Configure xmonad to support mostRecentlyUsed.

mostRecentlyUsed Source #

Arguments

:: [KeySym]	The `KeySym`s corresponding to the modifier to which the action is bound.
-> KeySym	The `KeySym` corresponding to the key to which the action is bound.
-> X ()

An action to browse through the history of focused windows, taking another step back with each tap of the key.

withMostRecentlyUsed Source #

Arguments

:: [KeySym]	The `KeySym`s corresponding to the modifier to which the action is bound.
-> KeySym	The `KeySym` corresponding to the key to which the action is bound.
-> (Window -> Location -> X ())	The function applied to each window.
-> X ()

A version of mostRecentlyUsed that allows you to customise exactly what is done with each window you tab through (the default being to visit its previous Location and give it focus).
