[xmonad] IM layout configuration for Psi

[Matt Brown]

I tried a few different ways using xprop as a guide, but still no
luck.   Any more tips?

from xmonad.hs:

1st attempt:
IM (1%7) (Or (ClassName "psi") (And (ClassName "Skype") (And (Role "")
(Not (Title "Options")))))

2nd attempt:
IM (1%7) (Or (Role "psimain") (And (ClassName "Skype") (And (Role "")
(Not (Title "Options")))))

3rd attempt:
IM (1%7) (Or (Title "Psi") (And (ClassName "Skype") (And (Role "")
(Not (Title "Options")))))


Note:  i was testing with only the psi buddy list window and
terminals, to be certain no other windows might have "psi" in their
props.  Figured once I was able to match the buddy list window, then I
could refine it to make sure no other psi window is matched.


the main psi window xprops:
