an idea
|
is there a way to get like
you hit ctrl-Esc or something and it "closes" zmud, but it keeps it running and just puts a little icon on your taskbar... would be *very* useful.. any way to get something like that i hope? :) |

If you can find it, there's also a prog called WatchCat.
WatchCat is a small system tray applet for hiding application windows. Windows hidden by WatchCat also will disappear from taskbar and Alt+Tab chain. It's extremely convenient if you need to keep applications such as MS Outlook open all the time but don't check them often.
I have mine set up that if i hit crtl-q the screen i am looking at disappears from the taskbar. And it don't show in the sys tray either.
ctrl-w brings up a menu of my hidden screens. either a mouse click or arrow key & enter will bring the hilited screen back.
Use it at work all the time for all my mudding & browsing needs.
Also nice if you always have lots of windows open and want to sort them a little with a hide/unhide juggling.
Got it 5yrs ago. and couldn't live without it.
Edit: Found a download for it.

if this is for the 'the boss just walked in' reasons, a friend of mine did some monkeying with the fonts, background color and font color. made zmud look a bit more like another program he was supposed to be using while working. like say microsoft word...
what i mean is that the following:
might raise a few less eyebrows than the following:
that and if you hide all the buttons and junk, your golden.
but then i might be reading into the reasons why your asking what your asking... |
