-- Module : XMonad.Actions.MessageFeedback
-- Copyright : (c) Quentin Moser <quentin.moser@unifr.ch>
-- License : BSD3

-- Maintainer : None
-- Stability : unstable
-- Portability : unportable
--
-- Alternative to 'XMonad.Operations.sendMessage' that provides knowledge
-- of whether the message was handled, and utility functions based on
-- this facility.

import XMonad.Core ( X (), Message, SomeMessage(..), LayoutClass(..), windowset, catchX )

-- $usage
-- You can use this module with the following in your @~\/.xmonad\/xmonad.hs@:
--
-- > import XMonad.Actions.MessageFeedback
--
-- You can then use this module's functions wherever an action is expected.
--
-- Note that most functions in this module have a return type of @X Bool@
-- whereas configuration options will expect a @X ()@ action.
-- For example, the key binding
--
-- > -- Shrink the master area of a tiled layout, or move the focused window
-- > -- to the left in a WindowArranger-based layout
-- > ((modKey, xK_Left), tryMessage Shrink (MoveLeft 50))
--
-- is mis-typed. For this reason, this module provides alternatives (ending with
-- an underscore, e.g. tryMessage_) that discard their result and return an @X ()@.
-- For example, to correct the previous example:
--
-- > ((modKey, xK_Left), tryMessage_ Shrink (MoveLeft 50))
--
-- | Behaves like 'XMonad.Operations.sendMessage', but returns True of the
-- message was handled by the layout, False otherwise.
send :: Message a => a -> X Bool
send = sendSM . sm
-- | Sends the first message, and if it was not handled, sends the second.
-- Returns True if either message was handled, False otherwise.

tryMessage m1 m2 = do b <- send m1

tryMessage_ :: (Message a, Message b) => a -> b -> X ()

-- | Tries sending every message of the list in order until one of them
-- is handled. Returns True if one of the messages was handled, False otherwise.
