-- $usage
-- You can use this module by importing it into your @~\/.xmonad\/xmonad.hs@ file:
--
-- > import XMonad.Layout.MessageEscape
--
-- Then, if you use a modified layout where the modifier would intercept
-- a message, but you'd want to be able to send it to the inner layout
-- only, add the 'unEscape' modifier to the inner layout like so:
--
-- > import XMonad.Layout.Master (mastered)
-- > import XMonad.Layout.Tabbed (simpleTabbed)
-- > import XMonad.Layout.LayoutCombinators ((|||))
-- >
-- > myLayout = Tall ||| unEscape (mastered 0.01 0.5 $ Full ||| simpleTabbed)
--
-- you can now send a message to the inner layout with
-- @sendMessage $ escape message@, e.g.
--
-- > -- Change the inner layout
-- > ((modm .|. controlMask, xK_space), sendMessage $ escape NextLayout)
--
-- If you want unescaped messages to be handled /only/ by the enclosing
-- layout, use the 'ignore' modifier:
--
-- > myLayout = Tall ||| (ignore NextLayout $ ignore (JumpToLayout "") $
-- > unEscape $ mastered 0.01 0.5
-- > $ Full ||| simpleTabbed)
--
-- /IMPORTANT NOTE:/ The standard '(|||)' operator from "XMonad.Layout"
-- does not behave correctly with 'ignore'. Make sure you use the one
-- from "XMonad.Layout.LayoutCombinators".
-- | the Ignore layout modifier. Prevents its inner layout from receiving
-- messages of a certain type.
