-- $usage
--
-- You can use this module with the following in your @~\/.xmonad\/xmonad.hs@:
--
-- >    import XMonad.Actions.Commands
--
-- Then add a keybinding to the runCommand action:
--
-- >    , ((modMask .|. controlMask, xK_y), runCommand commands)
--
-- and define the list of commands you want to use:
--
-- >    commands :: [(String, X ())]
-- >    commands = defaultCommands
--
-- Whatever key you bound to will now cause a popup menu of internal
-- xmonad commands to appear.  You can change the commands by
-- changing the contents of the list 'commands'.  (If you like it
-- enough, you may even want to get rid of many of your other key
-- bindings!)
--
-- For detailed instructions on editing your key bindings, see
-- "XMonad.Doc.Extending#Editing_key_bindings".
