Command Line minimize?

[migel]

Is there a way to start up Winamp minimized from the command line? I know we can edit the shortcut to open it minimized, but I couldn't find anything about command line or something similar. Thanks in advance and any help would be greatly appreciated.

Nope.

Perhaps a command line app/"plug-in".

Clamp seems to have a minimize switch/option. However, as mentioned by cyfrus, the biggest disadvantage to CLAmp is the Winamp.exe path is hard-coded to the default path (Program Files\Winamp).

is too late to do it now but i could look at adding a /minimise switch to the modded version of WACommand that i've done. hopefully i'll be able to do it tomorrow...

Thanks for the suggestions. I was kind of hopig for an out of the box solution to my little problem, but I'll deal for now. However, I will have to try out WACommand.

put up a new build http://nunzioweb.com/daz/WACommand/ which should sort things out for you (i hope)

DrO,

There is a parallel conversation on starting Winamp minimized here.

Could your WACommand be used in conjunction with a standard Windows shortcut?

I'm trying to figure out the cleanest way to launch Winamp in a Minimized state.

it will work as a standard windows shortcut, you just need to create a shortcut to the wacommand.exe and in the properties add the required command at the end of the 'target' part e.g. "C:\Program Files\Winamp\WACommand.exe" /startmin
