-- $usage
-- You can use this module with the following in your @~\/.xmonad\/xmonad.hs@:
--
-- > import XMonad
-- > import XMonad.Actions.UpdatePointer
--
-- Enable it by including it in your logHook definition. Eg:
-- 
-- > logHook = updatePointer Nearest
-- 
-- which will move the pointer to the nearest point of a newly focused window, or
--
-- > logHook = updatePointer (Relative 0.5 0.5)
--
-- which will move the pointer to the center of a newly focused window.
--
-- To use this with an existing logHook, use >> :
--
-- > logHook = dynamicLog
-- >           >> updatePointer (Relative 1 1)
--
-- which moves the pointer to the bottom-right corner of the focused window.

data PointerPosition = Nearest | Relative Rational Rational

-- | Update the pointer's location to the currently focused
-- window unless it's already there
