 ## Defaults
 
 - `Alt+h/j/k/l`: navigate panes
+- `Alt+n`: new pane — a floating pane when floating panes are shown, otherwise a new tiled
+  pane (tiled panes are split equally across the width)
 - `Alt+f`: show or hide all floating panes
-- `Alt+Shift+f`: create a new floating pane
+- `Alt+x`: close the active pane; closing a tab's last pane closes the tab, and closing the
-- `Alt+F12`: cycle floating panes
+  last pane of the last tab quits
-- `Alt+x`: close the active floating pane
+- `Alt+a`: new tab
+- `Alt+Shift+h` / `Alt+Shift+l`: previous / next tab
 - `Alt+t`: open the font selector
 - `Alt+s`: open the active pane scrollback in `$EDITOR`
 - Font default: `JetBrainsMono Nerd Font`
 - Kitty graphics protocol parsing is enabled by default
+
+Each tab has its own stack of tiled and floating panes; only the active tab is rendered. A
+thin tab bar appears at the top when more than one tab is open. Closing the last tiled pane
+while floating panes exist promotes the most recently active floating pane to a tiled pane.
