Changing header of executable

[Joe Forster/STA]

You can run a console program without a console using start /b <program>. But that works from the command line interface - %COMSPEC% - only as it's an internal command. It won't work from a GUI program which is why I wrote two versions of the "Minimize2Tray" programs - console and GUI -, to be released some time...

I have been looking for source code how to minimize an app to the tray for a while. Unfortunately it has to be WinAPI but. Do you know or have a source code on how to do that by any chance?


Also what about my LZSS compression problem?

There are hundreds of "minimize to tray" programs out there but because 1) none did exactly what I wanted and 2) I've been in a C coding spree for years anyway I wrote my own. Drop me an E-mail and I'll send to you the binary as well as the full source (MinGW/gcc 4.5+ needed for compilation). And, no, it's not trivial how to do it...

Sorry, I can't help you with your other problem; I'm not very familiar with compression beyond the basic knowledge and some hacking.
