 Traymond
=======
A very simple app for minimizing any window to tray as an icon. Runs in the background.
In case it terminates unexpectedly, restart the app and all the icons for minimized windows will come back.
Windows 7 or later required.
**NB**: Does **_NOT_** work with apps from the Microsoft Store (see [#3](/../../issues/3)).
A binary is available [here](https://github.com/fcFn/traymond/releases).
Installing
------------
No installation required, just run Traymond.exe.
Controls
--------
+ __Win key + Shift + Z__: Minimize the currently focused window to tray.
+ __Double click on an icon__: Bring back the corresponding hidden window.
+ __Tray icon menu__ accessible by right-clicking the Traymond tray icon:
+ __Restore all windows__: Restore all previously hidden windows.
+ __Exit__: Exit Traymond and restore all previously hidden windows.
