You can use this module with the following in your `~/.xmonad/xmonad.hs`:

    import XMonad.Layout.Maximize

Then edit your `layoutHook` by adding the Maximize layout modifier:

    myLayout = maximize (Tall 1 (3/100) (1/2)) ||| Full ||| etc..
    main = xmonad defaultConfig { layoutHook = myLayout }

For more detailed instructions on editing the layoutHook see:

XMonad.Doc.Extending

In the key-bindings, do something like:

           , ((modm, xK_backslash), withFocused (sendMessage . maximizeRestore))
           ...
