The config file is a program written in the general-purpose
programming language Haskell, so you have all of Haskell's power at
your fingertips. Branch on the value of $DISPLAY or do any other thing
that seems sensible. For example:
main = do
display <- getEnv "DISPLAY"
case display of
":0.0" -> xmonad config00
":0.1" -> xmonad config01
_ -> hPutStrLn stderr "Hey! I was expecting either :0.0 or
:0.1 in $DISPLAY."
