-- $usage
-- You can use this module with the following in your @~\/.xmonad\/xmonad.hs@:
--
-- > import XMonad.Layout.LayoutHints
--
-- Then edit your @layoutHook@ by adding the LayoutHints layout modifier
-- to some layout:
--
-- > myLayouts = layoutHints (Tall 1 (3/100) (1/2))  ||| Full ||| etc..
-- > main = xmonad defaultConfig { layoutHook = myLayouts }
--
-- For more detailed instructions on editing the layoutHook see:

-- "XMonad.Doc.Extending#Editing_the_layout_hook"
