+Localization
+------------
+
+As soon as Window Maker is compiled with some options and gettext installed, it
+is fully localizable. Check the INSTALL file.
+
+However, localization of menus can be used without the LANG environment
+variable set. Using pl menu allows to get menus in any available language
+without setting this variable.
+
+Why do such a "thing" instead of setting the localization the "right" way?
+
+For some reasons users may want to keep the system default language instead of
+defining a new localization. One of the main reason is that most software
+doesn't exist in all languages.
+
+Fonts
+-----
+
+It's possible to change the fonts in Window Maker, editing the WindowMaker file
+or the WMGLOBAL file in ``~/GNUstep/Defaults``.
+
+Once again the INSTALL file gives instructions on how to do it.
+
+The specific file to edit varies according to the fonts to be changed.
+
+The script *wsetfont* is provided to do the job.
+
+Utilities
+---------
+
+Window Maker provides the user with some useful utilities.
+
+There is a README file concerning these scripts in the util directory.
+
+Almost each script has it's own man page recommended reading.
+
+These utilities mainly concern the GUI: icons, styles, fonts, menus,
+backgrounds.
+
+A few of them deserve special interest as many users don't seem to know about
+them.
+
+The *wdwrite* script, for instance, writes data into the configuration files.
+
+The *setstyle* (or *getstyle*) scripts are used to manage themes.
+
+*Wxcopy* and *wxpaste* allows copying and pasting using the X cutbuffer.
+
+The first one makes part of the default applications menu, in the selection
+item.
+
+For KDE users, wkdemenu.pl is worth using.
+
+From version 0.63.0 on, a new utility is available : *wmagnify*. It allows
+magnification of the area under the mouse pointer.
