KDocker
|

-------
|
|
3 |
KDocker will help you dock any application in the system tray. This means you |
|
4 |
can dock openoffice, xmms, firefox, thunderbolt, eclipse, anything! Just point |
|
5 |
and click. Works for both KDE and GNOME (In fact it should work for most modern |
|
6 |
window managers that support NET WM Specification. I believe it works for XFCE, |
|
7 |
for instance) |
|
8 |
||
9 |
All you need to do is start KDocker and select an application using the mouse |
|
10 |
and lo! the application gets docked into the system tray. The application can |
|
11 |
also be made to dissappear from the task bar. |

Tips to use KDocker
|
|
18 |
-------------------
|
|
19 |
1. On KDE, right click on K menu and use the menu editor to create a link of
|
|
20 |
KDocker and create a shortcut (Windows key + Z). You could use the kdocker.xpm |
|
21 |
in the src folder as the icon (its an anchor). |
|
22 |
Rationale: ^Z on the shell puts processes in the background. On the same lines, |
|
23 |
Windows+Z will help you put windows app to the background ;) (thanks to Thomas |
|
24 |
McGuire for this suggestion) |
|
25 |
2. With KDocker 0.9, there is an option to dock the current active window (-f).
|
|
26 |
As soon as you press WinKey+Z, the window which has the focus will be |
|
27 |
automatically docked. Thanks to Daniel for this neat feature request. |
