[xmonad] Fwd: Patch to add new Layout message

[Mike Meyer]

I started with those docs and wrote up a blog entry documenting how to
extend a Layout.  I haven't published it yet, and would appreciate feedback
on it. Also, if someone who can edit the wiki wants to use this to fill in
the appropriate part of the wiki docs, that would be fine by me.

You can get to the markdown on draftin at
https://draftin.com/documents/490906?token=i8AJR0nv8RK3G8KYV07NXxzArVeDgkTBvPvj4qa3M8BkdX-mUs07C8ZGj6_T4mwZAr8A22gcRjkqgUr3PmHR2rM

That should let you edit the markdown and show me the diffs. If you don't
want to deal with draftin, let me know and I'll see about getting it to you
another way.

Thanks,
Mike
