[xmonad] how to redirect dynamicLogXinerama output to a FIFO/named pipe?

[Lara Michaels]

Hi Brandon

thank you for this, now I no longer get the error message upon starting xmonad. However, still nothing gets read by 'tail -f .xmonad-fifo'.

Is there some other way to the dynamicLogXinerama information so that I can display it on an applet/appindicator?

thanks!

*sigh* sorry, late night and I missed part of it.  Also, you're using gnomeConfig, so it takes a little more:

    , startupHook = (io $ hSetBuffering stdout LineBuffering) <+> startupHook gnomeConfig
