 @code-bit-cookie:matrix.org | Oh it is actually window ruling for the win | 16:52:08 |

 @therealdannyboy:matrix.org | XMonad is written in Haskell. It's not as new and shiny as Rust, but it feels like black magic, as has been said. | 17:30:59 |
 mıaomāı | A year or two or three ago, I might have tried that wtftw, but I am become lazy. XMonad is nice and I'm used to it now. Even though I still can't figure out how to get it to make room for xmobar. | 18:49:45 |
| mıaomāı | I'd try it now if it supported Wayland… and the evil proprietary graphics drivers I'm using supported Wayland. | 18:53:46 |
| @therealdannyboy:matrix.org | Waymonad is a thing. | 19:48:08 |
| @therealdannyboy:matrix.org | * WayMonad is a thing. | 19:48:13 |
| @therealdannyboy:matrix.org | But NVIDIA...yeah... | 19:48:27 |
| mıaomāı | I think it was seen as a not very good thing, last time I checked. But I'm not sure. | 19:48:39 |
| mıaomāı | Or maybe I just wanted to think that because the GitHub repo for it hasn't been touched in years. | 19:49:30 |

XMonad is written in Haskell. It's not as new and shiny as Rust, but it feels like black magic, as has been said.
So is this good on haskells side? | 11:14:10 |
| @therealdannyboy:matrix.org | I think so. Haskell is what is called a functional programming language. | 15:35:53 |
| @code-bit-cookie:matrix.org | Nice, I have learnt Haskell and now am wanting to learn rust as I am a programmer | 18:44:55 |
| mıaomāı | Each has its place. | 22:49:59 |
| mıaomāı | I decided that I'm too stupid for Haskell. | 22:51:01 |

It's not as new and shiny as Rust, …
| 07:19:28 |
| mıaomāı | This statement amuses me. | 07:19:41 |
| @therealdannyboy:matrix.org | LOL I just got it. That was not intended, but I agree that it is quite clever. | 07:21:24 |
| @therealdannyboy:matrix.org | * LOL I just got it. That was not intended, but I agree that it is quite amusing. | 07:21:34 |
| mıaomāı | Unintentional puns are the best puns. | 07:21:58 |
| mıaomāı | Now, how do you get XMonad to leave space for xmobar? | 07:22:56 |
| mıaomāı | … even after I went and learned a good bit of Haskell, XMonad's config file kept feeling a bit too black magicy. | 07:24:11 |
| @therealdannyboy:matrix.org | You tell to avoidStructs. Perhaps looking at some example configs would help. | 07:26:32 |
| mıaomāı | I have that, though. | 07:34:44 |
| mıaomāı | … and there it goes. | 07:44:53 |
| mıaomāı | xmonad $ ewmh … → xmonad . docks $ ewmh … | 07:45:35 |
| @therealdannyboy:matrix.org | Do you have the spawnPipe bit set up? | 08:07:39 |
| mıaomāı | Yes, I had it all working normally for a while, and I guess I messed it up when I added that ewmh part. I don't remember why I did that. | 08:08:28 |
| mıaomāı | I didn't get rid of any of the xmobar stuff, I just killed it semi-regularly because I couldn't see it. | 08:09:11 |
| mıaomāı | Now it seems to be working right again, so I'm messing with the old xmobar config that I hadn't touched in… possibly years now. | 08:10:09 |
