 kdocker

SYNOPSIS¶

kdocker [options]

DESCRIPTION¶

 KDocker is a program that will dock most applications to the system tray
 Kdocker can dock a window in a few different ways
 1. By specifying an application to launch (app argument)
 2. Specifying a regular expression to find a window based on its title (-n)
 3. Specifying a window id (-w)
 4. Specifying a pid (-x)
 5. Not specifying any of the above. KDocker will have you select the window to dock. Negated by the -z option
 The -n option is compatible with application launching. Useful if the application spawns another process (E.g. a launcher)
 A DBus interface is exposed at com.kdocker.KDocker which can be used to dock and interact with docked windows.
