-- Make a given layout display without borders.  This is useful for
-- full-screen or tabbed layouts, where you don't really want to waste a
-- couple of pixels of real estate just to inform yourself that the visible
-- window has focus.

-- $usage
-- You can use this module with the following in your ~\/.xmonad\/xmonad.hs file:
--
-- > import XMonad.Layout.NoBorders
--
-- and modify the layouts to call noBorders on the layouts you want to lack
-- borders:
--
-- > layoutHook = ... ||| noBorders Full ||| ...
--
-- For more detailed instructions on editing the layoutHook see:
--
-- "XMonad.Doc.Extending#Editing_the_layout_hook"

-- todo, use an InvisibleList.
