;;; window-manager.el --- Functions augmenting my usage of EXWM -*- lexical-binding: t -*-

;; Author: William Carroll <wpcarro@gmail.com>
;; Version: 0.0.1
;; Package-Requires: ((emacs "25.1"))

;;; Commentary:
;; I switched to EXWM from i3, and I haven't looked back.  One day I may write a
;; poem declaring my love for Emacs and EXWM.  For now, I haven't the time.

;; Wish list:
;; - TODO: Support different startup commands and layouts depending on laptop or
;;   desktop.
;; - TODO: Support a Music named-workspace.

;;; Code:

;; TODO: Associate KBDs for each of these named-layouts.

;; TODO: Decide between window-manager, exwm, or some other namespace.

;; TODO: Support (cycle-from-list '(current previous)) to toggle back and forth
;; between most recent workspace.

;; TODO: Support ad hoc cycle for loading a few workspaces that can be cycled
;; between. (cycle-from-list '("Project" "Workspace"))

;; TODO: Consider supporting a workspace for Racket, Clojure, Common Lisp,
