XMonad.Layout.Master

Layout modfier that adds a master window to another layout.

Usage

You can use this module with the following in your ~/.xmonad/xmonad.hs:

 import XMonad.Layout.Master

Then edit your layoutHook and add the Master modifier to the layout that you prefer.

 mastered (1/100) (1/2) $ Grid

This will use the left half of your screen for a master window and let Grid manage the right half.

For more detailed instructions on editing the layoutHook see XMonad.Doc.Extending.

Like XMonad.Layout.Tall, withMaster supports the XMonad.Layout.Shrink and XMonad.Layout.Expand' messages.
