</h1><div class="doc"><p>You can use this module with the following in your <code>~/.xmonad/xmonad.hs</code>:
</p><pre> import XMonad
import XMonad.Actions.UpdatePointer
</pre><p>Enable it by including it in your logHook definition. Eg:
</p><pre> logHook = updatePointer Nearest
</pre><p>which will move the pointer to the nearest point of a newly focused window, or
</p><pre> logHook = updatePointer (Relative 0.5 0.5)
</pre><p>which will move the pointer to the center of a newly focused window.
</p><p>To use this with an existing logHook, use >> :
</p><pre> logHook = dynamicLog
>> updatePointer (Relative 1 1)
</pre><p>which moves the pointer to the bottom-right corner of the focused window.
