Welcome to XMonad

Welcome to XMonad

This is a collection of documentation for the development version of xmonad, and two extension libraries.

See for a summary of changes: http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Xmonad/Notable_changes_since_0.9

They are built from the following darcs repos:

 $ darcs get --partial http://code.haskell.org/xmonad
 $ darcs get --partial http://code.haskell.org/XMonadContrib
 $ darcs get --partial http://code.haskell.org/xmonad-extras # optional, provides a couple modules

Get cabal install from your distro's repos, or follow these instructions http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Cabal-Install#Unix

Then build and install each with the commands:

 $ cd $reponame
 $ cabal install

Some packages have flags, which are named in the .cabal file. You can set flags by running cabal install with a specific flag:

 $ cabal install --flags="flag1,flag2"
