+-- A layout modifier that implements an event hook at the layout level.
+--
+-- Since it operates at the 'Workspace' level, it will install itself
+-- on the first current 'Workspace' and will broadcast a 'Message' to
+-- all other 'Workspace's not to handle events.

+
+-- $usage
+-- You can use this module with the following in your
+-- @~\/.xmonad\/xmonad.hs@:
+--
+-- > import XMonad.Hooks.EventHook
+--
+-- Then edit your @layoutHook@ by adding the 'eventHook':
+--
+-- > layoutHook = eventHook EventHookExample $ avoidStruts $ simpleTabbed ||| Full ||| etc..
+--
+-- and then:
+--
+-- > main = xmonad defaultConfig { layoutHook = myLayouts }
+--
+-- For more detailed instructions on editing the layoutHook see:
+--
+-- "XMonad.Doc.Extending#Editing_the_layout_hook"
+
+-- $hook
+-- Writing a hook is very simple.
+--
+-- This is a basic example to log all events:
+--
+-- > data EventHookExample = EventHookExample deriving ( Show, Read )
+-- > instance EventHook EventHookExample where
+-- >     handleEvent _ e = io $ hPutStrLn stderr . show $ e --return ()
+--
+-- This is an 'EventHook' to log mouse button events:
+--
+-- > data EventHookButton = EventHookButton deriving ( Show, Read )
+-- > instance EventHook EventHookButton where
+-- >    handleEvent _ (ButtonEvent {ev_window = w}) = do
+-- >         io $ hPutStrLn stderr $ "This is a button event on window " ++ (show w)
+-- >    handleEvent _ _ = return ()
+--
+-- Obviously you can compose event hooks:
+--
+-- > layoutHook = eventHook EventHookButton $ eventHook EventHookExample $ avoidStruts $ simpleTabbed ||| Full ||| etc..
