Usage

1. In your ~/.xmonad/xmonad.hs: 

 import XMonad.Prompt
 import XMonad.Prompt.Shell

2. In your keybindings add something like: 

   , ((modMask x .|. controlMask, xK_x), shellPrompt defaultXPConfig)

For detailed instruction on editing the key binding see XMonad.Doc.Extending.

shellPrompt :: XPConfig -> X ()Source
getCommands :: IO [String]Source
getBrowser :: IO StringSource
Ask the shell what browser the user likes. If the user hasn't defined any $BROWSER, defaults to returning "firefox", since that seems to be the most common X web browser. Note that if you don't specify a GUI browser but a textual one, that'll be a problem as getBrowser will be called by functions expecting to be able to just execute the string or pass it to a shell; so in that case, define $BROWSER as something like "xterm -e elinks" or as the name of a shell script doing much the same thing.
getEditor :: IO StringSource
Like getBrowser, but should be of a text editor. This gets the $EDITOR variable, defaulting to "emacs".
getShellCompl :: [String] -> String -> IO [String]Source
split :: Eq a => a -> [a] -> [[a]]Source
prompt :: FilePath -> XPConfig -> X ()Source
safePrompt :: FilePath -> XPConfig -> X ()Source
