[xmonad] DynamicWorkspaces: New WS not accessible with mod+number

[Ralph Hofmann]

No, I haven't. Because I didn't understand the code;-).

Okay, but how to enter it into xmonad.hs? Because in order to modify my
keys I use additionalKeysP from XMonad.Util.EZConfig, which uses strings
instead of a pairs as representation for key combinations.

So the line from the documentation needs to be modified:

zip (zip (repeat (modm)) [xK_1..xK_9]) (map (withNthWorkspace
W.greedyView) [0..])

I came to something like:

zip (??? (repeat ("M-")) ["1".."9"]) (map (withNthWorkspace
W.greedyView) [0..])

If ??? takes two lists of strings an returns a list of pairwise
concatenated strings,it should work. At least I hope so.

How to do that? Obviously a no brainer for a haskell programmer, which
is, what I am not.
