Hi,<div><br></div><div>I wished for a layout in which the bottom 1/10th of my screen would have a fixed few things (mostly filled with tail -f's of logs and such), while being free to use the rest of the upper 9/10 of the screen normally.</div>
<div>I was suggested I play with LayoutScreens for this.</div><div>The idea was that it would "divide" the screen in half -- pretend as if I had two monitors... </div><div><br></div><div>I tried it out. It's working. I'm using the lines in this page exactly: <a href="http://xmonad.org/xmonad-docs/xmonad-contrib/XMonad-Layout-LayoutScreens.html">http://xmonad.org/xmonad-docs/xmonad-contrib/XMonad-Layout-LayoutScreens.html</a></div>
