This module provides an easy way to control, what you see on other screens in
xinerama mode without having to focus them. Put this into your
~/.xmonad/xmonad.hs:
import XMonad.Actions.OnScreen
Then add the appropriate keybindings, for example replace your current keys
to switch the workspaces with this at the bottom of your keybindings:
++
[ ((m .|. modm, k), windows (f i))
| (i, k) <- zip (workspaces conf) ([xK_1 .. xK_9] ++ [xK_0])
, (f, m) <- [ (viewOnScreen 0, 0)
, (viewOnScreen 1, controlMask)
, (greedyView, controlMask .|. shiftMask) ]
]
This will provide you with the following keybindings:
- modkey + 1-0:
Switch to workspace 1-0 on screen 0
- modkey + control + 1-0:
Switch to workspace 1-0 on screen 1
- modkey + control + shift + 1-0:
Default greedyView behaviour
A more basic version inside the default keybindings would be:
, ((modm .|. controlMask, xK_1) windows (viewOnScreen 0 "1"))
where 0 is the first screen and 1 the workspace with the tag 1.
For detailed instructions on editing your key bindings, see
XMonad.Doc.Extending.
