The XMonad Window Manager

Note that I dont use this anymore. I now use gnome. See my .gnomerx below

#!/bin/bash

# if [ -f $HOME/.bash_env ]; then
#     source $HOME/.bash_env
# fi

# source $HOME/bin/xmod

# export WINDOW_MANAGER=xmonad

# pidof xcompmgr || xcompmgr -c -C -F &
# pidof emacs || emacs --daemon &
# gnome-session &

# exec xmonad

if [ -f ~/.bash_env ]; then
    . ~/.bash_env
fi

if [ -f ~/.xmodmaprc ]; then
    xmodmap ~/.xmodmaprc
fi

This is nice. Using screen in conjunction with urxvt and xmonad. See the xmonad.hs for how it launches/hides the screen session.

Particularly nice is the use of urxvt for scratchpad and default terminal which in turn connects to a screen session.
