Description
xmonad is a tiling window manager for X. Windows are arranged automatically to tile the screen without gaps or overlap, maximising screen use. All features of the window manager are accessible from the keyboard: a mouse is strictly optional. xmonad is written and extensible in Haskell. Custom layout algorithms, and other extensions, may be written by the user in config files. Layouts are applied dynamically, and different layouts may be used on each workspace. Xinerama is fully supported, allowing windows to be tiled on several screens.

Message after installing
XMonad is now compiled using Cabal "new-build" mechanism. This means that config file should now be compiled using "build" script approach. When EXAMPLES option is enabled, the port installs example build script. To migrate your config: % pkg install hs-cabal-install % cp /usr/local/share/examples/xmonad/build ~/.xmonad/build % cp /usr/local/share/examples/xmonad/xmonad-config.cabal ~/.xmonad/xmonad-config.cabal % cabal new-update Make sure your config is named ~/.xmonad/config.hs, or change corresponding line in the .cabal file. Building the config for the first time requires decent amount of time, so it is recommended to manually run the build script before the first startup: % ~/.xmonad/build It is possible to use devel/stack to build the config, as well as other means. See https://github.com/xmonad/xmonad-testing/ for all available options.
