+long_desc="
+ Openbox works with your applications, and makes your desktop easier to
+ manage. This is because the approach to its development was the opposite of
+ what seems to be the general case for window managers. Openbox was written
+ first to comply with standards and to work properly. Only when that was in
+ place did the team turn to the visual interface.
+
+ Openbox is fully functional as a stand-alone working environment, or can be
+ used as a drop-in replacement for the default window manager in the GNOME
+ or KDE desktop environments.
+
+ Some of the things to look for in Openbox are:
+
+  * ICCCM and EWMH compliance!
+  * Very fast
+  * Chainable key bindings
+  * Customizable mouse actions
+  * Window resistance
+  * Multi-head Xinerama support!
+  * Pipe menus"
