COMMANDS
--------
Default keys and behavior can be customized via the config.h file:
 Win+Button1 raise focused window to top of stack
 Win+Button3 raise focused window to top of stack
 Win+Button1+[drag] interactive window move
 Win+Button3+[drag] interactive window resize
 Win+Space run launcher menu (default: dmenu_run)
 Win+Enter create new terminal window (default: st)
 Win+b create new browser window (default: surf)
 Win+q kill focused window
 Win+f full-screen focused window
 Win+Shift+q quit window manager

 $ make
 $ sudo make install
EXAMPLES
