-dwm - dynamic window manager
-============================
+JasonWoof's fork of dwm - dynamic window manager
+================================================
 dwm is an extremely fast, small, and dynamic window manager for X.
 
+JasonWoof's modifications include:
+
+1.	A new layout that's kinda like deck, but there's a little space above and
+	below the main slave window where you can see (a little bit of) the other
+	slave windows.
+
+2.	When you've got only 1 window in a workspace: by default, it is in the
+	master area. A new tag/attribute is used to specify windows that should use
+	all available space when alone. This results in fewer window resizes, and
+	is nice for applications which are usually not so nice when they're huge
+	(eg firefox, mutt).
+
+3.	_NET_WM_OPACITY is set. Run xcompmgr or the like, so you can see which
+	window has focus. (Non-zero width borders are probably broken in this fork)
+
+4.	Terminals are spawned with environmental variable containing the current
+	workspace number. This can be used to eg have separate shell history per
+	workspace, and/or make terminals stay in their correct workspaces accross
+	dwm restarts.
+
+5.	New windows open to the right (clockwise) of the focused window. Closing
+	the focused window focuses the window to its left (counter-clockwise). This
+	achieves both:
+	
+	1.	After closing a window, focus goes where you expect (it's consistent,
+		and you don't have to remember what was focused before to predict
+		correctly.)
+
+	2.	When you open a window, and then close it, focus goes back to where it
+		was originally.
+	
+	And an added bonus: The master window doesn't move around or change size
+	when you open or close other windows.
+
