+xmobar (A Minimalistic Text Based Status Bar)
+
+It was designed to work with the xmonad Window Manager.
+
+It was inspired by the Ion3 status bar, and supports similar features,
+like dynamic color management, output templates, and extensibility
+through plugins.
+
+This requires ghc, haskell-X11, haskell-X11-xft, haskell-mtl, haskell-stm,
+haskell-parsec, and haskell-hinotify.
+
+haskell-xmonad-contrib is recommended.
