Change your defaultLayout such that -- withUrgencyHook is applied along the chain. Mine, for example: -- -- > layoutHook = Layout $ withUrgencyHook $ windowNavigation $ -- > Select layouts -- -- It shouldn't hurt to have the "withUrgencyHook $" at the outermost layer, -- as above, as UrgencyHook is a LayoutModifier, and hence passes on any -- messages sent to it. Next, add your actual urgencyHook to Config. This -- needs to take a Window and return an X () action. Here's an example: -- -- > import XMonadContrib.Dzen -- ... -- > urgencyHook :: Window -> X () -- > urgencyHook = dzenUrgencyHook (5 `seconds`) -- -- If you're comfortable with programming in the X monad, then you can build -- whatever urgencyHook you like.
