 ## Features
 Clifm is a [brick](https://github.com/jtdaugherty/brick) application, that in turn builds upon [vty](https://github.com/jtdaugherty/vty). As such it supports a large number of terminals, but not on Windows, handles windows resizing and more.
 
-If your terminal supports a mouse you can use it to change Tab/Pane, click a button on the bottom or change your selection, but only using the keyboard you can perform every possible action. This is the list of all the keybindings:
