You can change the mod key. See:

 When doing things like that with the window manager I usually start a
 terminal first.  I like xterm.  

OK, xmonad ran and mod-p gave a dmenu as a list of commands in 
a ribbon across the top of the screen.  The left and right arrow keys scrolled 
the list.  I didn't find how to execute a command in dmenu or get a 
result from any other xmonad key binding.  Didn't spend much time at 
it and not complaining.

Incidentally, xmonad.man refers to the mod key but never mentions what 
it is. Alt+P gave the dmenu.  On a PC keyboard, mod appears to be Alt.  

 /dev/null

Never seen /dev/null used for input.  What is the advantage?  Or what is 
the harm in not specifying stdin?

 ~/.xsession-errors  ... Oops. ...   ~/.xsession-errors ...

No problem.  Caught it.

 So the priority doesn't matter and the best doesn't matter.

I miss that point completely.  What is the significance of auto and 
manual?

Thanks,   ... Peter E.
