+DESCRIPTION
+
+   cwm is a window manager initially inspired by evilwm[1].  It
+   developed out of modifications to evilwm, but eventually the code
+   base of evilwm did not accomodate well for the new features added.
+   So calmwm was written from scratch.
+
+   Its main goal is to be as efficient as possible, while providing 
+   a very clean, simple & attractive aesthetic.
+
+   cwm has several novel features, including the ability to search
+   for windows.
+
+HIGHLIGHTS IN RELEASE TWO
+
+   * Improved alt-tabbing, including the ability to reverse cycle.
+   * Display of a context menu when alt-tabbing, showing the previous,
+     current and next window in the cycle order.
+   * Much improved ranking in search.
+   * In search-menus, the ability to list every item.
+
+HIGHLIGHTS IN RELEASE THREE
+
+   * More search ranking improvements
+   * Many contributions by Antti Nykänen: keyboard binding "i18n",
+     show window labels in minimized window menu, automatic window
+     grouping, MWM hints support & some bug fixes.
+   * Xft support & the addition of the -f flag (see manpage).
