+About
+*****
+
+   ratpoison is a simple Window Manager with no fat library
+dependencies, no fancy graphics, no window decorations, and no flashy
+wank. It is largely modelled after GNU Screen which has done wonders in
+virtual terminal market.
+
+   All interaction with the window manager is done through keystrokes.
+ratpoison has a prefix map to minimize the key clobbering that cripples
+EMACS and other quality pieces of software.
+
+   You'll also be pleased to hear that there is NO ratpoison.conf to
+configure. If you want to configure ratpoison, edit the source.

+Using ratpoison
+***************
+
+   ratpoison is a very simple window manager. Each window is maximized
+and has no border decorations. Here is a list of commands and what they
+do:
+
+`C-t C-c'
+     This opens a new XTerm.
+
+`C-t C-e'
+     This opens a new EMACS session. You will probably only need to do
+     this once.
+
+`C-t C-w'
+     This displays the Program Bar which displays the windows you
+     currently have running. The number before each window name is used
+     to jump to that window. You can to this by typing `C-t C-<n>'
+     where `<n>' is the number of the window. Note that only windows
+     with numbers from 0 to 9 can be referenced.
+
+     After 5 seconds the Program Bar disappears.
+
+`C-t C-p'
+     This jumps you to the previous window in the window list.
+
+`C-t C-n'
+     This jumps you to the next window in the window list.
+
+`C-t C-<n>'
+     This jumps you to window <n> where <n> is the window number as
+     shown in the Program Bar.
+
+`C-t C-t'
+     This toggles between the current window and the last window.
+
+`C-t t'
+     Sometimes you need to send a C-t to the current window. This
+     keystroke does just that.
