    2.14 -arranges windows in either a tiled or floating mode.
    2.15 +is a dynamic window manager for X11. It manages windows in tiling and floating
    2.16 +modes. Either mode can be applied dynamically, depending on the application in

    2.21 -manages all windows in a left master column and a right stacking column. The
    2.22 -master column contains a single window, the left stacking column all other
    2.23 -windows. Dialog windows are treated floating.
    2.24 +In tiling mode windows are managed in a master and stacking column. The master
    2.25 +column contains the window which needs most attention at a time, whereas the
    2.26 +stacking column contains all other windows in a stack.  Dialog windows are
    2.27 +managed floating, however. In floating mode windows can be resized and moved
    2.28 +freely.
