the multi-window nature of the program makes this impractical

There are utility programs that allow the user to designate which applications minimize to the system tray. I use one called All-To-Tray, www.dntsoft.com. It is shareware. I believe there are other free utilities that do pretty much the same thing. So if this is what you want, it can be done without any changes on Nikos part.

BTW, I tested xplorer2 Pro with All-To-Tray and it works fine.

Refer to the manual to see a freeware that does this.

Yes, but it would be fine, if it's possible to minimize every window!
=OR=
if there is only ONE Tray Icon, which opens any window, after selecting it in a context menu!
