+-- An example external contrib module for xmonad.
+--
+-- Provides a simple binding to dzen2 to print the date as a popup menu.
+--
+-- To use, modify your Config.hs to:
+--
+--      import XMonadContrib.SimpleDate
+--
+-- and add a keybinding:
+--
+--     , ((modMask,               xK_d     ), date)
+--
+-- a popup date menu will now be bound to mod-d
