  * dynamic window manager is designed like any other X client as well. It is
  * driven through handling X events. In contrast to other X clients, a window
  * manager like dwm selects for SubstructureRedirectMask on the root window, to
- * receive events about child window appearance and disappearance.  Only one X
+ * receive events about window appearance and disappearance.  Only one X
  * connection at a time is allowed to select for this event mask.
  *
- * Calls to fetch an X event from the event queue of the X connection are
- * blocking.  Due the fact, that dwm reads status text from standard input, a
- * select-driven main loop has been implemented which selects for reads on the
- * X connection and STDIN_FILENO to handle all data smoothly and without
- * busy-loop quirks. The event handlers of dwm are organized in an array which
- * is accessed whenever a new event has been fetched. This allows event
- * dispatching in O(1) time.

- * Each child window of the root window is called a client in window manager
- * terminology, except windows which have set the override_redirect flag.
- * Clients are organized in a global doubly-linked client list, the focus
- * history is remembered through a global stack list. Each client contains an
- * array of Bools of the same size as the global tags array to indicate the
- * tags of a client. There are no other data structures to organize the clients
- * in tag lists. All clients which have at least one tag enabled of the current
- * tags viewed, will be visible on the screen, all other clients are banned to
- * the x-location x + 2 * screen width.  This avoids having additional layers
- * of workspace handling.
