-You can use your old blackbox configuration file too. Just copy
-.blackboxrc to ~/.fluxbox/init . The same goes for menu file.

+For former blackbox users:
+
+ - You can use your old blackbox configuration file too. Just copy
+   .blackboxrc to ~/.fluxbox/init . The same goes for menu file.
+
+ - You can also use the Blackbox themes in Fluxbox. Fluxbox has a few
+   extra styleoption for the tabs but they don't have to be specified.
+
+ - The keys file is no longer compatible with bbkeys. There's a
+   convertkeys script at http://fluxbox.sourceforge.net/ that will
+   convert the bbkeys format to the fluxbox format.
+
+
+A few extra notes about the new features:
 
-The keys config file can be selected in the file init:
-session.keyFile: <filename here>
-The keys file is no longer compatible with bbkeys. There's a convertkeys
-script at http://fluxbox.sourceforge.net/ that will convert the bbkeys
-format to the fluxbox format.
- 
- 
-A few extra notes:
  - To disable tabs and/or iconbar just change it in configure menu.
- - To work with tabs, use the third mouse button to drag a tab to another tab.
-   This will group the two windows together.
- - With 'Sloppy Window Grouping' turned on (in your configure menu), you can
-   drop the tabs anywhere on the target window to group windows together.
- - The 'Maximize over Slit' option means that maximized windows will not stop 
-   at the outside border of the slit, and will instead cover it.
- - In the init file, the session.screen0.rootCommand: option will override
-   the rootCommand option in a theme- keeping your background the same, no
-   matter what the theme says it should be.
