+.SH Mouse Support
+There is experimental mouse support. You can focus windows, activate buttons,
+select rows in a list, scroll using the wheel-scroll etc. Mouse support is
+disabled by default, so you need to enable it in ~/.gntrc (see the sample
+above).
+
+.SH Window Management
+The default window management is very limited. But it is possible to write
+custom window managers to suit your needs. There is a sample window-manager
+included (named \fIs.so\fR) which adds a little 'close-button' for the windows,
+removes the borders from the buddylist and pops up new windows in the middle of
+the screen, instead of at the upper-left corder. It is provided as a sample
+simple manager, but it should be possible to write more complex managers, and
+it's very possible that the window-manager API will need to be enhanced. Look at
+the sample ~/.gntrc file above to see how to select a window-manager.

 .SH Conversation Commands
 There are a few helpful commands in addition to the regular commands. You can
 use these from any conversation to access other windows.
