+<para>The &kappname; interface is composed of a number of smaller docked windows.
+Manipulating these windows can be difficult at first. To focus a particular
+window in the &kappname; interface, simply click within it.</para>

+resembling an arrow at its right end and a close button resembling the
+letter X. It looks like this:
