-- xmonad calls the logHook with every internal state update, which is
-- useful for (among other things) outputting status information to an
-- external status bar program such as xmobar or dzen. DynamicLog
-- provides several drop-in logHooks for this purpose, as well as
-- flexible tools for specifying your own formatting.

-- $usage
-- You can use this module with the following in your @~\/.xmonad\/xmonad.hs@:
--
-- > import XMonad
-- > import XMonad.Hooks.DynamicLog
--
-- Then set your logHook to an appropriate function, for example
--
-- > logHook = dynamicLog
--
-- or, for more flexibility, something like
--
-- > logHook = dynamicLogWithPP myDynamicLogPP
-- > ...
-- > myDynamicLogPP = defaultPP { ... -- override pretty-printer with specific settings
--
-- If you don't use statusbar, you can use dynamicLogString to show on-screen
-- notifications in response to some events. E.g. to show current layout when
-- it's changed create apropriate PP and add to keybindings:
--
-- > , ((mod1Mask, xK_a ), sendMessage NextLayout >> (dynamicLogString myPP >>= \d->spawn $"xmessage "++d))

-- the default dynamic log output.
