- Keyboard :
- ----------
-
- If there are more than 17 windows, use "u"p and "d"own to move the
- list. Press "s" to move the screen to front, press "f" to move the
- FENSTER screen to front - Sometimes I wanted to see the screen and the
- window so I included this two functions.
-
-
- Press the right mouse button to close the Fenster screen, the Fenster
- window won't be closed. So by pressing the right mouse button you can
- return to the Fenster screen.
-
-
-
- IMPORTANT :
- -----------
- FENSTER doesn't check if the datas are correct any more - So don't try
- to close a window a second time or to close a still used screen because
- the system will crash !!!!
