Welcome to wmii, the non-wimp environment of the WMI Project.

This is a small step by step tutorial, intended to make you a little bit
familiar with wmii.

Note, \$MODKEY is the Alt-key by default.

Let's go!

- Start two xterms by pressing \$MODKEY-t twice.
- Switch between the three windows: \$MODKEY-j, \$MODKEY-k
  You can also use \$MODKEY-Tab instead of \$MODKEY-j.  If you prefer the mouse,
  then just click the desired window.
- Create a new column with: \$MODKEY-n
- Tag the selected client with another tag: \$MODKEY-Shift-2
  IMPORTANT: before you do next step, note that you can select the current tag
		  with \$MODKEY-1.
- Select the new tag: \$MODKEY-2
- Select the floating area: \$MODKEY-space
- Open the programs menu: \$MODKEY-Control-p
  Type 'xclock' and press Enter.
- Resize the xclock window: left-click on the border and, while holding the
  button down, move the cursor around.
- Move the xclock window: left-click on the title bar and, while holding
  the button down, move the cursor around.
- Open the actions menu: \$MODKEY-Control-a
  Rerun wmiirc by selecting 'wmiirc'.
- Working with mouse efficiently:
  selecting a window: just click the desired window
  move a window: press \$MODKEY-Button1Press
  and resize a window: press \$MODKEY-Button3Press and resize it
  (this can also be done by clicking the titlebar of the window/borders respectively)
- We'll now have a look at the internal filesystem used by wmii.  Executing
  	wmiir read /
  in the shell of the terminal will list all the files in the root directory.
  Entries beginning with a d  are directories.
  If you are curious, you can now dig deeper into the directory trees. For instance,
  	wmiir read /bar/
  will show you the content of the bar.

We hope that these steps gave you an idea of how wmii works.  You can reread
them at any time by pressing \$MODKEY-Control-a and selecting 'welcome'.

You should now take a look at the wmii(1) man page.  An FAQ is available on
