+# XMonad-config
+
+Built just for me...although you may fork if you like it ;)
+
+# Features
+
+* ACPI event listener: reacts to events from acpid such as power button presses
+  and lid locks
+* Smart dynamic Workspace manager: spawns and destroys app-specific workspaces
+  on the fly
+* Xmobar: spawns a child Xmobar process with unified theme
+* DBus integration: commands such as brightness and screensaver control emit
+  events that can be captured (currently used to control indicators on XMobar)
+* Rofi integration: uses rofi in various forms for:
+   * launching apps
+   * selecting windows
+   * viewing keybindings
+   * selecting Wifi networks (networkmanager_dmenu)
+   * clipboard management (greenclip)
+   * mounting disks
