{- $usage




First, import this module into your @~\/.xmonad\/xmonad.hs@:

> import XMonad.Actions.Submap

Allows you to create a sub-mapping of keys. Example:

>    , ((modm, xK_a), submap . M.fromList $
>        [ ((0, xK_n),     spawn "mpc next")
>        , ((0, xK_p),     spawn "mpc prev")
>        , ((0, xK_z),     spawn "mpc random")
>        , ((0, xK_space), spawn "mpc toggle")
>        ])

So, for example, to run 'spawn \"mpc next\"', you would hit mod-a (to
trigger the submapping) and then 'n' to run that action. (0 means \"no
modifier\"). You are, of course, free to use any combination of
modifiers in the submapping. However, anyModifier will not work,
because that is a special value passed to XGrabKey() and not an actual
modifier.

For detailed instructions on editing your key bindings, see
"XMonad.Doc.Extending#Editing_key_bindings".
