Hey fellas, me again...
I know you have a lot on your plate, what with 3 modules and all, but I had a bit of an idea. What about an xSysTray? Now, I'm clueless when it comes to coding, but I'd think you could possibly take xTaskbar and switch it over to looking at the systray icons instead, and strip out the text-display code... That way we can have our cake, and eat it too! Well, it's probably not that simple, but still, a systray module from Andymon could be nothing but awesome.
Stuff like my previous post, which was sort-of cured by fake transparency -When I maximize my windows I was hoping the icons would show the tops over the bottom of the window, didn't realize fake transparency turns Magic Pink into the background... neat feature, but doesn't quite work for what I was needing- could be cured by alphatransparency instead. This could be sweet!
edit- ooh, you could even leave the text display in and add possibility for a clock (which, upon mouseover, would display the date)... [ Edited ]

I believe we were aware of that GothsSecret, just showing that we'd be willing to, if that's what it took.

Christmas is pretty hard on me, but I suppose $5 from my pocket in January wouldn't kill me.

Well, as i probably said i cannot handle the systray
So an xSystray won't come, simply write Vendicator to update his vTray, this would be the easiest way.
Or all members pay me a Dollar in a month and i'll do it

To come back to the subject, I vould love too an xSystray that vould have the resizing/repositioning like xLabel/xTaskbar (with animation).
But specially, a systray that would finally remember the icons after a Litestep restart.
And alphatransparency
ANd no bug

Just a teaser:
A very, very, very simple TextEdit function will be added to xLabel!
Just Bang Execution and LabelText Editing, without any pretty extras.

Ya, i didn't really mean without bands. I just ment that there is no way to do like !commandbox that allows passing of info. Seems like this would be a nice thing to add in mzscript. Similar to the %{"Question" "Yes "No"} thing. I wish i knew how to write modules. All that OS interaction is way over my head though.

!bangs would still be involved, there. either hitting enter, or having a button cause the same effect throguh a bang, and a specified bang would go off, with the contents as an escape code.
