Forums Feature Suggestions mIRC global hot key to restore/minimize

Is it possible to add global hot key to bring mirc window to the front and to minimize it from keyboard when necessary?

useful when you have mIRC in system tray and don't want to touch your mouce once again to check if there are any new messages in a channel

thx

add this alias:

/alias F12 showmirc -t

now the f12 key is the hotkey for minimice your mirc

It's possible with a dll but I don't know of an existing dll that does this.

I could be wrong , but i seem to remember something in windows, disabilities help section, allowed for programs to be hotkeyed into the forground (might have been hotkey launched/forground if already running), But that was a while ago, so i cant remeber exactly where it was (or if it was sorry)
