+Snapping a window to the top
+----------------------------
+
+You can now choose whether snapping a window to the top edge of the screen
+maximizes it to the top half (the previous and default behavior) or to the
+full screen by setting "SnapToTopMaximizesFullscreen" to "NO" or "YES",
+respectively. This setting can also be changed by unchecking or checking
+"Snapping a window to the top maximizes it to the full screen" in the
+"Expert User Preferences" tab in WPrefs.app.
