+4.4. Task View
+
+The task view lets you manage IO tasks like copying, moving and
+loading directories by changing their priority or stop them.
+
+	w	open or close the task view
+	dd	stop the task
+	J	decrease the priority of the task
+	K	increase the priority of the task
+
+The execution of tasks is not parallel but sequential.  Only the
+topmost task is executed.  Ranger constantly switches between
+handling GUI and executing tasks.  One movement of the throbber at
+the top right represents such a switch, so while the throbber is
+standing still, ranger is locked by a Input/Output operation and
+you will not be able to input any commands.
