I made a dialog, i wanted it visible on mirc when im using mIRC, but i wanted to beable to hide it and minimize it out of the way when i diddnt want it, but closing is not an option (the script auto opens the dialog if its closed) so an always on top would be nice... OR an option to minimize to mIRC's Switchbar/tree (when not opened on desktop) --- or both?
