-- A prompt for appending a single line of text to a file. Useful for
-- keeping a file of notes, things to remember for later, and so on---
-- using a keybinding, you can write things down just about as quickly
-- as you think of them, so it doesn't have to interrupt whatever else
-- you're doing.
--
-- Who knows, it might be useful for other purposes as well!

--
-- You can use this module by importing it, along with
-- "XMonad.Prompt", into your ~\/.xmonad\/xmonad.hs file:
--
-- > import XMonad.Prompt
-- > import XMonad.Prompt.AppendFile
--
-- and adding an appropriate keybinding, for example:
--
-- > , ((modMask x .|. controlMask, xK_n), appendFilePrompt defaultXPConfig "/home/me/NOTES")
--
-- For detailed instructions on editing your key bindings, see
-- "XMonad.Doc.Extending#Editing_key_bindings".
