DONE: use hotkey to minimize the active window
(1/1)

Cross-post from https://www.donationcoder.com/forum/index.php?topic=1638 :
I did try Autohotkey some time ago, but the only thing I needed at the moment was minimizing currently active window on hotkey. I didn't find how to do it with Autohotkey in an hour, so now using Hotkeycontrol XP, which in fact has this function right out-of-the-box. Although, I open for suggestions on how to do this with Autohotkey.

I'm sure skrommel is able to come up with the code for this with the blink of an eye :)
I'd also like to add the code to my main script, there are times when this might come in handy!
skrommel:
:) Ctrl-M minimizes the active window.
--- ---^m::WinMinimize,A
Skrommel

Mmmm. Lovely. Thanks, guys! :)
The only question. I have a program that minimizes itself to tray. Neither Hotkeycontrol XP nor Autohotkey with this fantastic script can minimize it properly -- it always minimizes to taskbar. Although when I click Minimize button in window it does everything properly.
Any ideas on how to overcome this issue with Autohotkey? Any pointers too look for appreciated.
Thanks again!
skrommel:
:) You could use something like
--- ---^m::
IfWinActive,titleoftroublesomeprogram
MouseClick,xposofminimizebutton,yposofminimizebutton
Else
WinMinimize,A
Skrommel
