WinWarden does some neat things...  Any idea if it's possible to move a Taskbar icon to SysTray and still leave Application Displayed?  In other words, I don't want Mimimize to SysTray.

Thanks,
Jason

:) The problem is getting multiple icons in the tray - AHK only makes one per program. So to have multiple icons, multiple scripts must be running - not very economic.
But it is possible, so if I add Min to tray, I shure will add a Move to tray, too.

Technically, I agree.  However, it's not unheard of now.  Konfabulator runs mulitiple instances of itself per widget.
