+## RATPOISON
 Productive, automated, scriptable, and minimal, Ratpoison is a strict tiling window manager using similar bindings to GNU Screen. A few of its benefits are.
 * No mouse used, all done by commands called by typing _"control"_ and _"t"_ at the same time, plus another key.
 * You can set your own bindings in the file _".ratpoisonrc"_ which is extremely friendly.
 * Extensible by scripts. The _"rpws"_ script for example adds multiple workspaces (comes by default), another script (_"expose.pl"_) gives a mozaic of current windows.
+* Full manual available from the terminal:  
+`info ratpoison`  
+* Can temporarily switch to another window manager with the _"tmpwm"_ command for your comfort.
