-- Add something like the following lines to Config.hs to use this module
--
-- > import XMonadContrib.XPropManage
-- 
-- > manageHook = xPropManageHook xPropMatches 
-- >
-- > xPropMatches :: [XPropMatch]
-- > xPropMatches = [ ([ (wM_CLASS, any ("gimp"==)))], (\w -> float w >> return (W.shift "2")))
-- >                , ([ (wM_COMMAND, any ("screen" ==)), (wM_CLASS, any ("xterm" ==))], pmX (addTag "screen"))
-- >                , ([ (wM_NAME, any ("Iceweasel" `isInfixOf`))], pmP (W.shift "3"))

-- Properties known to work: wM_CLASS, wM_NAME, wM_COMMAND
--
-- A XPropMatch consists of a list of conditions and function telling what to do.
--
-- The list entries are pairs of an XProperty to match on (like wM_CLASS, wM_NAME)^1,
-- and an function which matches onto the value of the property (represented as a List
-- of Strings).
--
-- If a match succeeds the function is called immediately, can perform any action and then return
-- a function to apply in 'windows' (see Operations.hs). So if the action does only work on the
-- WindowSet use just 'pmP function'.
--
-- \*1 You can get the available properties of an application with the xprop utility. STRING properties
-- should work fine. Others might not work.
