install-xmonad

#!/bin/bash
# 
# Installation script which setup up an Ubuntu Xenial machine to use this
# xmonad configuration. 
#
# WARNING!!! 
# * This has only been tested on a limited number of machines running 
#   Ubuntu 18.04 64-bit.
# * This is not a sophisticated installation script by any stretch 
#   of the imagination. 
# * I take no responsibility if this overwrites any configuration settings 
#   or otherwise messes up your system. 
#
# Please review the readme file to find out exactly what it does and does not 
# do. Or, visit the repository for more information:
