 This directory houses my personal xmonad configuration (xmonad.hs).  To check out my config, you will need to have xmonad, xmonad-contrib and xmobar installed.   Then you need to place the xmonad.hs file in ~/.xmonad or in ~/.config/xmonad/.  Then recompile xmonad and restart xmonad.
-
-## Quick Start
-
-  * From hackage:
-
-        cabal update
-        cabal install xmonad xmonad-contrib
-
-  * Alternatively, build from source using the following repositories:
-
-    - <https://github.com/xmonad/xmonad>
-
-    - <https://github.com/xmonad/xmonad-contrib>
-
-For the full story, read on.
-
-## Building
-
-Building is quite straightforward, and requires a basic Haskell toolchain.
-On many systems xmonad is available as a binary package in your
-package system (e.g. on Debian or Gentoo). If at all possible, use this
-in preference to a source build, as the dependency resolution will be
-simpler.
-
-We'll now walk through the complete list of toolchain dependencies.
-
-  * GHC: the Glasgow Haskell Compiler
-
-    You first need a Haskell compiler. Your distribution's package
-    system will have binaries of GHC (the Glasgow Haskell Compiler),
-    the compiler we use, so install that first. If your operating
-    system's package system doesn't provide a binary version of GHC
-    and the `cabal-install` tool, you can install both using the
-    [Haskell Platform][platform].
-
-    It shouldn't be necessary to compile GHC from source -- every common
-    system has a pre-build binary version.  However, if you want to
-    build from source, the following links will be helpful:
-
-      - GHC: <http://haskell.org/ghc/>
-
-      - Cabal: <http://haskell.org/cabal/download.html>
-
-  * X11 libraries:
-
-    Since you're building an X application, you'll need the C X11
-    library headers. On many platforms, these come pre-installed. For
-    others, such as Debian, you can get them from your package manager:
-
-        # for xmonad
-        $ apt-get install libx11-dev libxinerama-dev libxext-dev libxrandr-dev libxss-dev
-
-        # for xmonad-contrib
-        $ apt-get install libxft-dev
-
-Then build and install with:
-
-    $ cabal install
-
-## Running xmonad
-
-If you built XMonad using `cabal` then add:
-
-    exec $HOME/.cabal/bin/xmonad
-
-to the last line of your `.xsession` or `.xinitrc` file.
-
-## Configuring
-
-See the [CONFIG][] document and the [example configuration file][example-config].
-
-## XMonadContrib
-
-There are many extensions to xmonad available in the XMonadContrib
-(xmc) library. Examples include an ion3-like tabbed layout, a
-prompt/program launcher, and various other useful modules.
-XMonadContrib is available at:
-
-  * Latest release: <http://hackage.haskell.org/package/xmonad-contrib>
-
-  * Git version: <https://github.com/xmonad/xmonad-contrib>
-
-## Other Useful Programs
-
-A nicer xterm replacement, that supports resizing better:
-
-  * urxvt: <http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/rxvt-unicode.html>
-
-For custom status bars:
-
-  * xmobar: <http://hackage.haskell.org/package/xmobar>
-
-  * taffybar: <https://github.com/travitch/taffybar>
-
-  * dzen: <http://gotmor.googlepages.com/dzen>
-
-For a program dispatch menu:
-
-  * [XMonad.Prompt.Shell][xmc-prompt-shell]: (from [XMonadContrib][])
-
-  * dmenu: <http://www.suckless.org/download/>
-
-  * gmrun: (in your package system)
