<a href="XMonad-Prompt-Shell.html">XMonad.Prompt.Shell</a> instead - but you want to have easy access to these
executables through the xmonad's prompt.

</h1><div class="doc"><ol><li> In your <code>~/.xmonad/xmonad.hs</code>:
</li></ol><pre> import XMonad.Prompt.DirExec
</pre><ol><li> In your keybindings add something like:
</li></ol><pre> , ("M-C-x", dirExecPrompt defaultXPConfig spawn "/home/joe/.scipts")
</pre><p>or
</p><pre> , ("M-C-x", dirExecPromptNamed defaultXPConfig spawn
"/home/joe/.scripts" "My Scripts: ")
</pre><p>or add this after your default bindings:
</p><pre> ++
[ ("M-x " ++ key, dirExecPrompt defaultXPConfig fn "/home/joe/.scripts")
| (key, fn) <- [ ("x", spawn), ("M-x", runInTerm "-hold") ]
]
++
</pre><p>The first alternative uses the last element of the directory path for
a name of prompt. The second alternative uses the provided string
for the name of the prompt. The third alternative defines 2 key bindings,
first one spawns the program by shell, second one runs the program in
terminal
</p><p>For detailed instruction on editing the key binding see
