     1.4 +**Avant Window Navgator** (Awn) is a dock-like bar which sits at the bottom of 
     1.5 +the screen (in all its composited-goodness) tracking open windows.
     1.6 +
     1.7 +Awn uses libwnck to keep a track of open windows, and behaves exactly like a 
     1.8 +normal window-list : * Clicking an icon switches to that window, clicking 
     1.9 +again will minimise the window * Right-clicking will bring up a menu exactly 
    1.10 +like that of what you see on the window-list, allowing you to max, min, close, 
    1.11 +resize etc the window. * Dragging something on top of an icon will activate 
    1.12 +that window. * Visually (and quite attractively) responds to 'needs attention' 
    1.13 +& 'urgent' events * Can show windows from the entire viewport, or just the 
    1.14 +visible viewport.
    1.15 +
    1.16 +The bar can be customised extensively: * Choose between two 'engines': * Glass 
    1.17 +engine. All the gradients can be changed to your tastes. * Pattern engine. 
    1.18 +That's right, you can now have a leopard print bar to match your underpants. 
    1.19 +* The border & internal border colours can be changed. * The 'glow' (the 
    1.20 +background of an active window icon) can be changed, to be as simple or as 
    1.21 +lavish as you require. * Choose between sharp or rounded corners. * Choose 
    1.22 +the text & shadow colour of the window title text.
    1.23 +
    1.24 +All preferences can be adjusted using the provided avant-preferences program, 
    1.25 +which provides a friendly interface to the gconf settings.
