# Usage

You can use this module with the following in your `~/.xmonad/xmonad.hs`:

    import XMonad.Layout.LayoutCombinators

Then edit your `layoutHook` to use the new layout combinators. For example:

    myLayout = (Tall 1 (3/100) (1/2) *//* Full)  ||| (Tall 1 (3/100) (1/2) ***||** Full) ||| Full ||| etc..
    main = xmonad def { layoutHook = myLayout }

For more detailed instructions on editing the `layoutHook` see:

XMonad.Doc.Extending

# Layout combinators

Each of the following combinators combines two layouts into a single composite layout by splitting the screen into two regions, one governed by each layout. Asterisks in the combinator names denote the relative amount of screen space given to the respective layouts. For example, the `***||*` combinator gives three times as much space to the left-hand layout as to the right-hand layout.

## Combinators using DragPane vertical

These combinators combine two layouts using XMonad.DragPane in vertical mode.

The layout choice combinator

newtype JumpToLayout #

A message to jump to a particular layout, specified by its description string.

The argument given to a `JumpToLayout` message should be the `description` of the layout to be selected. If you use XMonad.Hooks.DynamicLog from `xmonad-contrib`, this is the name of the layout displayed in your status bar. Alternatively, you can use GHCi to determine the proper name to use. For example:

    $ ghci
    GHCi, version 6.8.2: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/  :? for help
    Loading package base ... linking ... done.
    :set prompt "> "    -- don't show loaded module names
    > :m +XMonad.Core   -- load the xmonad core
    > :m +XMonad.Layout.Grid  -- load whatever module you want to use
    > description Grid  -- find out what it's called
    "Grid"

As yet another (possibly easier) alternative, you can use the XMonad.Layout.Renamed module (also in `xmonad-contrib`) to give custom names to your layouts, and use those.

For example, if you want to jump directly to the `Full` layout you can do

    , ((modm .|. controlMask, xK_f), sendMessage $ JumpToLayout "Full")
