+autoswitch
+============
+
+Description
+-----------
+
+The **AutoSwitch** patch for the Dynamic Window Manager (dwm)
+offers a convenient way to optimize your workflow.
+It automatically switches between monocle and tiling modes after N windows are opened.
+You can specify N in the configuration file, with 4 as the default,
+but it can be customized to fit your preferences.
+
+This patch is inspired by a Reddit post [this post](https://www.reddit.com/r/suckless/comments/1fk6ogn/dwm_auto_monocle_mode/).
