-- $usage

-- This module allows you to pretend that you have more than one screen by
-- dividing a single screen into multiple screens that xmonad will treat as
-- separate screens.  This should definitely be useful for testing the
-- behavior of xmonad under Xinerama, and it's possible that it'd also be
-- handy for use as an actual user interface, if you've got a very large
-- sceen and long for greater flexibility (e.g. being able to see your
-- email window at all times, a crude mimic of sticky windows).

-- You can use this module with the following in your Config.hs file:
-- 
-- > import XMonadContrib.LayoutScreens
--
-- >   , ((modMask .|. shiftMask, xK_space), layoutScreens 2 (twoPane 0.5 0.5))
-- >   , ((controlMask .|. modMask .|. shiftMask, xK_space), rescreen)
