-Fluxbox builds on Blackbox source but has different goals.
-For copyright see COPYING
+This is a development version of Fluxbox.
+
+Fluxbox is a fork of the original Blackbox 0.61.1 sourcecode with
+different goals.
+
+Read NEWS to see whats new in this release.
+
+For copyright information see COPYING
+
+For more information and extensive documentation go to:
+  http://fluxbox.org/version-0.9.php
+
 
 Compile and Install:
 
-# ./configure 
-# make 
-and then as root
-# make install
+  $ ./configure
+  $ make
+  and then as root
+  # make install
+
+Configuration options:
+
+  For KDE slitsupport: (Allows kde tray icons to be placed in the fluxbox slit)
+    ./configure --enable-kde
+
+  For Gnome support:
+    ./configure --enable-gnome
+
+  Use ./configure --help to see the full list of options
+
+
+
+For former blackbox users:
+
+ - You can use your old blackbox configuration file too. Just copy
+   .blackboxrc to ~/.fluxbox/init . The same goes for menu file.
 
-for KDE slitsupport: 
- ./configure --enable-kde
+ - You can also use the Blackbox themes in Fluxbox. Fluxbox has a few
+   extra styleoption for the tabs but they don't have to be specified.
 
-To disable tabs and/or iconbar just  change it in configure menu.
+ - The keys file is no longer compatible with bbkeys. There's a
+   convertkeys script at http://fluxbox.sourceforge.net/ that will
+   convert the bbkeys format to the fluxbox format.
 
-To use your own configuration:
-Create a directorory, in your homedir, called .fluxbox
-and copy: init, titlebar and menu from fluxbox datapath.
-Dont forget to change session.menuFile and session.titlebarFile
-in the file init.
 
-You can use your old blackbox configuration file too. Just copy
-.blackboxrc to ~/.fluxbox/init . The same goes for menu file.
-The bbkeys config file can be selected in the file init:
-session.keyFile: <filename here>
-You can also use the Blackbox themes in Fluxbox.
-If there isn't any format for the tab in the theme then
-the tab will have the same theme as the titlebar.
+A few extra notes about the new features:
+
+ - To disable tabs and/or iconbar just change it in configure menu.
+
+ - To work with tabs, use the third mouse button to drag a tab to
+   another tab.  This will group the two windows together.
+
+ - With 'Sloppy Window Grouping' turned on (in your configure menu),
+   you can drop the tabs anywhere on the target window to group
+   windows together.
+
+ - The 'Maximize over Slit' option means that maximized windows will not
+   stop at the outside border of the slit, and will instead cover it.
+
+ - In the init file, the session.screen0.rootCommand: option will
+   override the rootCommand option in a theme, keeping your background
+   the same, no matter what the theme says it should be.
