When opening a program in Ubuntu (such as a web browser or a text editor\dash see \chaplink{ch:default-applications} for more information on using applications)\dash a \emph{window} will appear on your desktop. The windows in Ubuntu are very similar to those in Microsoft Windows or Mac \acronym{OS~X}. Simply stated, a window is the box that appears on your screen when you start a program. In Ubuntu, the top part of a window (the \emph{titlebar}) will have the name of the application to the left (most often, the title will be the name of the application). A window will also have three buttons in the top-left corner. From left to right, these buttons represent \emph{close}, \emph{minimize} window, and \emph{maximize} window. Other window management options are available by right-clicking anywhere on the title bar.

\screenshot{02-window-buttons.png}{ss:window-buttons}{This is the top bar of a window, named \emph{titlebar}. The close, minimize, and maximize buttons are on the top-left corner of window.} To close a window, click on the \closebutton{} in the upper-left corner of the window\dash the first button on the left-hand side. The button immediately to the right of the \closebutton{} is the \gls{minimize} button (\minimizebutton) which removes the window from the visible screen and places it in the Launcher. This button doesn't close the application, it just hides the application from view. When an application is minimized to the Launcher, the left-side of the icon in the Launcher will display a triangle showing you the application is still running. Clicking the icon of the application that is minimized will restore the window to its original position. Finally, the right-most button (\maximizebutton) is the \gls{maximize} button, which makes the application window fill the entire screen. Clicking the \gls{maximize} button again will return the window to its original size. If a window is maximized, its top-left buttons and menu are automatically hidden from view. To make them appear, just move your mouse to the \emph{menu bar}.
