 .SH DESCRIPTION

-.SS Overview
-.B dwm
-is a dynamic window manager for X11. It consists of a small status bar at the
-top of the screen and arranges windows in either a tiled or floating mode.
+dwm is a dynamic window manager for X. It manages windows in tiling and
+floating modes. Either mode can be applied dynamically, optimizing the
+environment for the application in use and the task performed.

-If 
-.B dwm
-is in tiled mode, it consists of two columns. The left master column
-contains only one window per time, the right column contains all other windows 
-in a stack. In tiled mode
-.B dwm
-.B don't
-handles incremental resizals, some terminal programs like
-.B xterm
-may not work correctly with this in tiled mode.
-.P
-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.
+In tiling mode windows are managed in a master and stacking area. The master
+area contains the window which currently needs most attention, whereas the
+stacking area contains all other windows. In floating mode windows can be
+resized and moved freely. Dialog windows are always managed floating,
+regardless of the mode selected.

-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.
+Windows are grouped by tags. Each window can be tagged with one or multiple
+tags. Selecting certain tags displays all windows with these tags.

 .P
 .P

-.B dwm
-reads from
-.I stdin
-to display status text, if written.
+dwm contains a small status bar which displays all available tags, the mode,
+the title of the focused window, and the text read from standard input. The
+selected tags are indicated with a different color. The tags of the focused
+window are indicated with a filled square in the top left corner.  The tags
+which are applied to one or more clients are indicated with an empty square in
+the top left corner.

-.B dwm
-draws 1-pixel borders around windows to indicate the focus state and save as
-much screen real estate as possible. Unfocused windows contain a small bar
-in front of the window indicating the tags and the window title.
-.SS Options
+dwm draws a 1-pixel border around windows to indicate the focus state.

-.SS Customization
-.B dwm
-is customized through editing its source code. It is assumed that
-dwm users are high experienced users who know how a window manager works
-and who are able to patch
-.B dwm
-for their needs. This keeps
-.B dwm
-fast, secure and simple, because it does not process any input data, except
-window properties and the status text read from

+.SH CAVEATS
+The status bar may display
