+=== Delaying exiting on zero displays
+
+Outputs may disappear momentarily and come back later. For example,
+using a docking station that does not announce the undock (e.g. ACPI Undock
+event triggered through manually pushing a button before actually ejecting
+the notebook). During the removal of the notebook from the docking station,
+all outputs disappear momentarily.
+
+To prevent i3 from exiting when no output is available momentarily, you can
+tell i3 to delay a certain time first and check available outputs again using
+the +delay_exit_on_zero_displays+ directive. Setting the value to 0 disables
+this feature.
+
+The default is 500ms.
