Client's keybindings and window management
------------------------------------------
-In the client's default window configuration, the window appearing on the left
-sports a list of keybindings available globally, and additionally via the window

-Hit "W" (per default keybindings) to switch the "active" window to a view that
-allows changing its geometry. One more hit on "W" switches the window to a view
-that allows changing its window-specific keybindings. The global keybindings can
-be changed in the "Global keys" window, those of the window geometry
-configuration in the "Window geometry keys" window, and those of the

-(per default keybindings) hitting the "F6", "F7" and "F8" keys.
+Multiple windows may fill the screen. One of these will be selected as "active"
