     Tilemode (Numeric)
 
     The Tilemode switch specifies the window tiling style. It can
     take one of the values below:
 
     Value    Tiling Style
 
     0        The first three windows are stacked one above the other.
     1        The top two windows are tiled side-by-side.
 
     When four or more windows are open, the tiling is the same in the
     two styles.
 
     In stacked style (Tilemode:0), the top windows are placed one
     above the other, as shown below. The active window is shown in
     gray.

     In side-by-side style (Tilemode:1), the top two windows are tiled
     next to each other, as shown below. This arrangement is good for
     comparing two files.
