Thanks a lot. It works exept for one line:
`, modMask = mod4mask`
The error message is the following:
Error detected while loading xmonad configuration file: /home/jenia-xmonad/.xmonad/xmonad.hs
xmonad.hs:13:38:
Not in scope: âmod4maskâ
Perhaps you meant one of these:
âmod4Maskâ (imported from XMonad),
âmodMaskâ (imported from XMonad), âmod1Maskâ (imported from XMonad)
Please check the file for errors.
========================================================================
Lets me repaste the config file:
import XMonad
import XMonad.Hooks.DynamicLog
main = xmonad =<< statusBar cmd pp kb conf
where
cmd = "xmobar"
pp = xmobarPP
kb (XConfig {XMonad.modMask = modMask}) = (modMask, xK_b)
conf = myConfig
myConfig = defaultConfig { borderWidth = 2
, terminal = "urxvt"
, modMask = mod4mask <----------- here is the mistake
}
========================================================================
Can you tell me please how to fix this?
Thanks again for your kind help.
