# alltray(1)

Dock any program into the system tray.

## NAME

AllTray - Dock any program into the system tray.

## SYNOPSIS

**alltray** \[program\] \[options\]

## DESCRIPTION

With **AllTray** you can dock any application with no native tray icon 
 (like Evolution, Thunderbird, Terminals) into the system tray. A high-light feature 
 is that a click on the "close" button will minimize back to system tray. 
 It works well with Gnome, KDE, XFCE 4\*, Fluxbox\* and WindowMaker\*. 
 Xmms is supported in particular.

Click-Mode: Only run alltray and click on the window you would like to dock.  (Abort with \<c\>)
