Also see the latest version of the complete README and the manual (WIP).

Manual link is 404. Attempted to find via site search but unsuccessful.

man devilspie2 is quite brief and suggests

More details in /usr/share/doc/devilspie2/README. ... Script Commands See the README or the manual linked from the homepage for a detailed description of the commands recognized by the Lua script.

The README is pretty extensive. Is there in fact another document? If yes then is it possible to make it available somewhere? Website should be update to fix the link or remove the reference from website and man page.

In either case I suggest adding the URL of the homepage to the man page for clarity. It is found at the bottom of the README but a person may not notice it.

Perhaps it would be worthwhile to put the README text directly into the man page since that is the standard location.
