-contains only one window per time, the right column contains all other windows

-If
-.B dwm
-is in floating mode, it arranges all windows with the reqyested geometry and
-allows the user to move or resize them. Some windows, like
-dialog windows, are treated floating even if
-.B dwm
-is in tiled mode. In floating mode
-.B dwm
-handles incremental resizals.

-Windows are grouped by tags. You can view all windows with a specific tag per
-time.  However, each window is allowed to contain more than one tag, which
-allows to make windows visible in all views.
+In tiling mode windows are managed in a master and stacking column. The master
+column contains the window which needs most attention at a time, whereas the
+stacking column contains all other windows in a stack.  Dialog windows are
+managed floating, however. In floating mode windows can be resized and moved
+freely.

-.SH BUGS
-Some terminal programs do not behave correctly in tiled mode, because
-incremental resizals are ignored to use maximum screen real estate. You can
-patch the code to fix this.
