 .SH DESCRIPTION
-.SS Overview
 .B dwm
-is a dynamic window manager for X11.
-.SS Options
+is a dynamic window manager for X11. It manages windows in tiling and floating
+modes. Either mode can be applied dynamically, depending on the application in
+use and the task performed.
+.P
+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.
+.P
+Windows are grouped by tags. All windows with a specific tag can be viewed at a
+time. But each window may contain more than one tag, which makes it visible in
+several views.
+.P
+.B dwm
+consists of a small status bar which reads the text displayed from standard
+input, if written. It draws 1-pixel borders around windows to indicate the
+focus state. Unfocused windows contain a small bar in front of the window
+displaying the tags and the window title.
