Hello.
Recently I found urgent to have Thunderbird minimized to system tray. I mean – why do I have to fire it up once I ‘presume’ I got mail. Having it in taskbar is kind of uncool too. Solution is flexible and was totally easy to find. First of all – get you terminal client ready.
sudo apt-get install kdocker
This command will install nifty tool for minimizing apps. Start the software. I do that with Alt + F2 combination (and entering ‘kdocker’) but I’m sure it can be found somewhere under K menu too. Should be under ‘Utilities’.
Now simply click on the program you want to minimize. And yep, that’s it! Sorry for the long post but I didn’t feel like writing a 15 words one. Until next time. Oh and one more thing – it’s based to Kubuntu but it’s no problem to do that on other distros. Commands may vary but those are not too different.
