Edited DESCR in the case of:
File too long (should be no more than 24 lines). Line too long (should be no more than 80 characters). Trailing empty lines. Trailing white-space. Trucated the long files as best as possible while preserving the most info contained in them.

+Simple dynamic window manager for X with features nicked from ratpoison and dwm:
- * Musca operates as a tiling window manager by default. It uses
- manual tiling, which means the user determines how the screen is
- divided into non-overlapping frames, with no restrictions on
- layout. Application windows always fill their assigned frame,
- with the exception of transient windows and popup dialog boxes
- which float above their parent application at the appropriate
- size. Once visible, applications do not change frames unless
- so instructed.
- * Since not all applications suit tiling, a more traditional
- stacking window manager mode is also available, allowing windows
- to float at any screen location and overlap.
- * There are no built in status bars, panels, tabs or window
- decorations to take up screen real estate. If the user wants
- any of these things, there are plenty of external applications
- available to do the job. Window decoration is limited to a
- slender border, which is coloured to indicate keyboard focus.
- * Windows are placed in named groups which can be used in a
- similar fashion to virtual desktops. Groups can be added and
- removed on the fly, and each group has its own frame layout.
- * The excellent dmenu utility is used to execute commands and
- launch applications, and it can also act as a window and group
- switcher. Basic EWMH support allows use of common panels, pagers
- and wmctrl.
- * Windows and frames are navigated and focused on any mouse button
- click, including rolling the wheel, or alternatively driven
- entirely by the keyboard. Simple key combinations exist for
- window switching, group switching, frame control and screen
- switching.
- * Frames can be dedicated to a single application window, preventing
- new windows usurping said frame. One frame per group can also
- be flagged as a catch-all so that all new application windows
- open there. The frame border colour changes to reflect these
- modes.
- * Musca has multi-screen support out of the box, and will
- automatically create groups for every available screen.
