+### Switch-Scripts
+For some deployments it can make sense to run `pvsmgr` on a regular instance
+(with a running VM) instead of a dedicated manager computer.
+
+If `pvsclient` detects that it is running on a instructor's computer it shows
+the button "Switch" with which the user can switch to a running pvsmgr window.
+To perform the window switching `pvsclient` calls the pair of shell scripts
+`switchToManager.sh` and `switchBack.sh`. See the sample configuration which
+uses `wmctrl` to perform the switching.
