Analogical to the existing functionality for hidden workspaces. Particularly useful if some displays managed by xmonad are turned off temporarily. + +The new 'ppVisibleNoWindows' function was wrapped in a Maybe data type. Its value dafaults to 'Nothing' and 'ppVisible' is used as fallback. + +## Motivation + +My TV is often turned off. Still I want to know if its workspace contains any windows, without having to switch workspaces. + +## Github Link +| _Xmonad-Contrib: Added pretty printer for empty visible workspaces (wrapped in Maybe)_ +| <https://github.com/xmonad/xmonad-contrib/pull/241> |
