Hi,

I need a tool to minimize window to tray, then exit itself. And double-click tray icon to restore.

Such as:

ToTray.exe [/Restore] <Title | Class | PID | Process name | Foreground window> | /StartToTray <Program Path>

I had tried Min2Tray.ahk, it can minimize window to tray. Click tray menu "Quit only", it'll leave the minmized tray icon, double-click the minmized tray icon, window will restore... So I think it can be a command line tool.

OK, this script starts a new process for every window that is minimized,
so the initializing process can be ended.

it should be no problem to change this scripts, to be initially run from the cmd-line.

this should give you a start:
paste the code in the Min2Tray Script (new code colored red, surrounding old code black):
Code:
If ( %0% < 1 )   ; cmdline: no args -> behaviour: starter
{
   ;=========================================================================
   ; started as hotkey-launcher (starter)
   Goto, h_InitStarter
   Return
}
; end of auto-execution for starter here!
;============================================================================

;============================================================================
; function as tray menu for minimized window (helper) starts here

;----------------------------------------------------------------------------


;-------cmd-line part-----
if ( %1% = "hide")
{
   whoami := "cmd_line_hide"
   Loop, %0%   ; go thru all arguments on command line
   {
      if (A_Index = 1)
         continue
      cmdLine .= A_Loopfield
      if (A_Index < %0%)
         cmdLine .= A_Space
   }
   
      ; find AutoHotkey.exe and save its path to a variable for later use
   If ( Not A_IsCompiled ) {
      RegRead, h_ahkFullPath, HKLM, SOFTWARE\AutoHotkey, InstallDir
      h_ahkFullPath = %h_ahkFullPath%\AutoHotkey.exe
      IfNotExist, %h_ahkFullPath%
      {
         h_ahkFullPath := f_FindFile( "AutoHotkey.exe", A_ProgramFiles )
         If ( h_ahkFullPath = "" )
         {   ; search windir
            StringSplit, tmparray, A_WinDir, \
            h_ahkFullPath := f_FindFile( "AutoHotkey.exe", tmparray1 )
            If ( h_ahkFullPath = "" )
               Goto, ExitWithAHKError
         }
      }
   }
   
   If ( A_IsCompiled )
      Run, "%A_ScriptFullPath%" %cmdLine%, , UseErrorLevel, h_newPID
   Else
      Run, "%h_ahkFullPath%" "%A_ScriptFullPath%" %cmdLine%, , UseErrorLevel, h_newPID
   
   If ( ErrorLevel = "ERROR" )   ; helper could not be started
      ExitApp, "ERROR"
   Else
      ExitApp, %h_newPID%
      
}
;--end--cmd-line part-----



; Helper -- init
;

whoami := "helper"
f_SetLanguage( whoami )

h_ID0 = 0
Loop, %0%   ; go thru all arguments on command line
{
   tmp := %A_Index%

   If InStr( tmp, "0x", TRUE ) = 1
   {  ; get several (at least one) window id
      h_ID0++
      h_ID%h_ID0% = %tmp%
   }
   Else If ( h_ID0 = 0 ) {
      If ( tmp = "__justTriggerAction__")
         h_JTA := TRUE
      Else  ; get title for multi window mode
         h_MultiTitle = %tmp%
   }
}

Thanks.

But how to use? I insert the red code you give into Min2Tray.ahk, execute 'm2t.ahk IrfanView', it prompt:

Error: First parameter must be a number!

which process showed the error?
the one you started,
or the one that was started by the script you started?

here's my suggestion to solve the prob:

if you would like to use Min2Tray to hide the window away, you can use a little snipped of script code like this:
Code:
; get WinID of a window and hide it
WinGet, winID, ID, <name of your window>
Run, "C:\AutoHotkey\AutoHotkey.exe" "C:\Min2Tray\Min2Tray.ahk" %winID%
; or with the compiled version of Min2Tray
Run, "C:\Min2Tray\Min2Tray.exe" %winID%

does what the comment says *g*, you just have to adopt the paths!

unhiding is not scriptable, ATM.
