+-- A floating layout which has been designed with a dual-head setup
+-- in mind. It makes use of "XMonad.Util.PositionStore" as well as
+-- "XMonad.Hooks.PositionStoreHooks" . Since there is currently no way
+-- to move or resize windows with the keyboard alone in this layout,
+-- it is adviced to use it in combination with a decoration such as
+-- "XMonad.Layout.NoFrillsDecoration" (to move windows) and the
+-- layout modifier "XMonad.Layout.BorderResize" (to resize windows).

+      positionStoreFloat
+    ) where
+
+import XMonad
+import XMonad.Util.PositionStore

+
+-- $usage
+-- You can use this module with the following in your @~\/.xmonad\/xmonad.hs@:
+--
+-- > import XMonad.Layout.PositionStoreFloat
+-- > import XMonad.Layout.NoFrillsDecoration
+-- > import XMonad.Layout.BorderResize
+--
+-- Then edit your @layoutHook@ by adding the PositionStoreFloat layout.
+-- Below is a suggestion which uses the mentioned NoFrillsDecoration and
+-- BorderResize:
+--
+-- > myLayouts = floatingDeco $ borderResize $ positionStoreFloat ||| etc..
+-- >               where floatingDeco l = noFrillsDeco shrinkText defaultTheme l
+-- > main = xmonad defaultConfig { layoutHook = myLayouts }
+--
+-- See the documentation of "XMonad.Hooks.PositionStoreHooks" on how
+-- to add the support hooks.
