trayer is a small program designed to provide system tray similar to these in GNOME / KDE desktop environments for window managers which does not support that function. It is similar to other applications such as peksystray and docker. System tray is a place, where many applications put their icons, so they are always visible. Such icons may present status of an applica- tion and allow user to control the program. trayer's code was extracted from fbpanel application, you can find more about it on its homepage: http://fbpanel.sourceforge.net/.

A summary of options is included below. --help -h Show summary of options and exit. --version -v Show version of program and exit. --edge left|right|top|bottom|none Specifies a screen edge to use. --align left|center|right Specifies an align of the icons. --margin <size> Specifies length of margin (in pixels) --widthtype request|pixel|percent Specifies method of calculating trayer's window width: request Follow application icons' size, so trayer may shrink or expand dynamically. pixel Set a fixed size, given with --width option in pixels. percent Set a fixed size, given with --width option in percentage of a length of screen edge. --width <size> Width of trayer's window.

Color is given as a 24-bit C hexadecimal integer, for example: 0xff0000 is red, 0xff8800 is orange and 0x00ff00 is green. --distance <length> Specifies distance between trayer's window and screen edge (in pixels) --distancefrom <edge> Specifies which edge to calculate distance from, see above. --expand true|false Specifies whether trayer may accommodate extra space when there is too much icons. --padding <size> Extra space between icons and trayer window's border. --monitor NUM|STRING Define the monitor on which you like trayer to appear, number of zero to number of monitors minus one, or the string "primary" are valid.
