+-- | Take a pretty-printer and turn it into one that only runs when the current
+-- workspace is one associated with the given screen. The way this works is a
+-- bit hacky, so beware: the 'ppOutput' field of the input will not be invoked
+-- if either of the following conditions is met:
+--
+-- 1. The 'ppSort' of the input returns an empty list (when not given one).
+-- 2. The 'ppOrder' of the input returns the exact string "\0".
+--
+-- For example, you can use this to create a pipe which tracks the title of the
+-- window currently focused on a given screen (even if the screen is not
+-- current) by doing something like this:
+--
+-- > ppFocus s = whenCurrentOn s defaultPP
+-- >     { ppOrder  = \(_:_:title:_) -> [title]
+-- >     , ppOutput = appendFile ("focus" ++ show s) . (++ "\n")
+-- >     }
+--
+-- Sequence a few of these pretty-printers to get a log hook that keeps each
+-- screen's title up-to-date.
