-- $usage
-- 1. In your @~\/.xmonad\/xmonad.hs@:
--
-- > import XMonad.Prompt
-- > import XMonad.Prompt.Man
--
-- 2. In your keybindings add something like:
--
-- >     , ((modm, xK_F1), manPrompt defaultXPConfig)
--
-- For detailed instruction on editing the key binding see
-- "XMonad.Doc.Extending#Editing_key_bindings".
